Daily Check-In for July 14th to July 16th 2025

Some of us experience the "seasonal blues" where we become depressed, feel a sort of anxiety and  sadness. The good news there are ways to improve your mental health and feel better. Our mental health includes pyschological and social well-being. 

Some mental health can not be controlled such as genetics, life experiences and family history. Mental health helps us define choices, how we are in handling stress and how we relate to others. When we work on our mental health we are able to improve our mood, reduce any stress and anxiety, have a clearer way in using our minds, improve our self-esteem and have a better relationship with others. 

Here are some examples of how to improve our mental health:

What are some ways you improve your mental health? 

To try to improve my mental health, I spend time with my family, grandson, helping others, exercising, cooking, baking, reading, or spending time with my two Huskies.

Our mental health is very important and we should treat it like we do our physical health.

@pamharley003 I…

1.) Exercise up to 6 days/weekly.

2.) Go to work…

3.) Play the guitar/compose music…

4.) Watch movies…

5.) Read books all the time.

6.) Be sure to stay away from most technology.

7.) Clean…

8.) Review music/books.

9.) Self-care…

10.) Shop for food, clothes, CDs…etc…

11.) Get at least 6-8 hours of sleep a night.

12.) Go to therapy…

13. Talk to my psych doctor..

And on and on…

Talking to a therapist and seeing a friend worked wonders for me!!

Not all good yet, but definitely huge leaps. I've also put myself out there to be in more social events. Even though I usually prefer deeper conversation, it's just fun to be around people. Honestly, they don't have to be that great all the time, it's just being around people and talking in a group is really nice :)

I love to take walks and exercise, but lately with this heat and poor air quality it is best to stay indoors 😮‍💨

I love spending time with my grandkids, they always make me laugh and put a smile on my face.

I do journal here on 7 Cups and have been with AI for the past 8 months

How important is our mental health?

Very important, just some days it's hard to tend to ourselves.

@pamharley003 Having friends that recharge me really helps me! Also just being in the sun or being outside does wonders for my mental health

I do a gratitude journal daily. I exercise. I try to socialize with people. I meditate. I do my self care apps. I pet my cat. I play my electric keyboard and guitar.
