1. Resting to look after your mental health

Sometimes it is very easy to keep the hamster wheel turning as you go after your goals. For some, they also feel really guilty to rest. To keep your mental health good, it is important  that you take a good night sleep and rest daily. Learn to be okay with rest. You don’t  deserve rest, you need it.

2. Good Vibes

It is said that it is bad spiritual hygiene to give everyone access to you. You owe it to yourself to alway listen to yourself and take care  of your mental health. Exit situations that  make  you feel less or take away your joy. It is okay to cut off people whose vibe take away from you. Sometimes  these people are not bad, you two just don’t rhyme and that’s  okay.

3. Positive Self Talk and Affirmations

You are always with yourself so what you say to yourself matters. It is recommended that you speak to yourself as you would talk to someone you love. You could also whisper positive affirmations to improve your mental health when you feel less.

4. Move your body

You could exercise, dance, or walk. Moving your body helps the body to create chemicals that make you happy. Many people accredit exercise to improve their mood and consequently  their mental  health.

5. Gratitude

Practicing gratitude allows you to focus on the good things happening  in your life. It brings sunshine to you to appreciate all that you have. It can be really hard in the beginning  but once it’s  a learned practice  you will have so much joy. You can start by just writing five things you are grateful  for daily.

6. Connection

Love is said to conquer all and I couldn’t agree more. Having people that could support through thick and thin does wonders to your mental health. Having your tribe allows to have spaces where you can vent when you are stressed without fear of judgement.

7. Control

Understanding what you can’t control and what you can is important for your mental health. This understanding will give you peace in working on what you can change and accepting what you can’t. Stressing over things that you can’t change only breaks you down for no reason.
