Promoting positive mental health can prevent the onset of some mental health problems but also strengthen a person and consequently their surroundings. It is not something one does exclusively for themselves but also to build strong and healthy relationships and communities.
Engaging in mental health activities helps to keep us mentally sound and fit.
What are you currently doing to support your mental health?
@amiablepeace77
I do things like exercise and yoga and meditation to support my mental health.
Great choice to keep in balance!
Taking some anti anxiety pills
Anxiety can be hard to cope with. Good that you have something to help. Do you also use mindfulness exercises like grounding or body scan?
@amiablePeace77 what helps my mental health the most is by being supportive on this site, listening to people's stories. It helps me mentally grow and learn who I am. Also I love doing art and craft ❤
@Tinywhisper11
I can relate, also every time I come here I learn something new!
@amiablePeace77 ❤❤
Trying to get my sleep working better..going to bed earlier and getting up earlier so i can engage in available sociable activities, and exercises.
@crimsonJar8902
Sounds like a good path to take!
A dietitian is coming to my apatment timorrow..she is pretty ,meticulously dressed with a well organized office and neat desk. There is no way I can have my apartment tidily organized by 1 pm tomorrow. So i have been on a self criticism harangue and being incompetent scatterbrain about tidying up. I was raised in a neat clean orderly home so i should know how..and add o on. Know any techniques for this?
@crimsonJar8902
I wish you a good session with the dietitian. Nice that you take care of your health!
When I'm under time pressure with cleaning I don't go into too much detail with it (like cleaning corners etc.) but just do what's most needed (cleaning or putting away dirty dishes, checking if things are laying around and put them away etc.). Hope this helps.
@amiablePeace77 I do something different every single day. Meditation always helps me
@PinkButterfly21
Nice PinkButterfly21, I find meditation help me too especially as preventative measure for stress, anxiety etc. It's good to change things as well to have more variety and keep it interesting. I mediate though on a daily basic, how about you?
