The Importance of Mental Health

 

Why is mental health important?

Mental health affects how we think, feel, and act. Mental health allows us the opportunity to cope with stresses of life. It also helps us to have meaningful connections, work productively, realize our full potential, and is linked with better physical health.

 

Tips to promote mental health:

  • Stay active for at least 30 minutes daily.
  • Learn how to keep your stress levels in order.
  • Eat a balanced diet.
  • Prioritize getting at least 8 hours of sleep.
  • Follow a healthy lifestyle.
  • Be mindful.
  • Seek help and support.
  • Find activities that you enjoy.

 

Everything has an impact on mental health!

No matter what, everything has an impact on our mental health, whether it is positive or negative. One of the largest parts of our lives is our work and happens to have one of the largest impacts on our mental health. Home life is a very large aspect of life that impacts our mental health along with our physical health, stress that comes with life, and family problems. These factors are all equally important to one another and must be acknowledged when trying to understand how we think, feel, and act within our daily lives.
