Working on Wellness – 5 Tips to Improve Your Mental Health 


It's no secret that women are often the ones who are tasked with taking care of everyone else. We're the ones who are constantly juggling work, family, and social obligations. And while we're good at multi-tasking and keeping everything organized, we often neglect our own needs in the process.


That's why it's so important to make sure that we're taking care of our mental health. Just like our physical health, our mental health needs to be a priority. And while it can be difficult to find the time to focus on ourselves, it's important to remember that our mental health is just as important as our physical health.


Here Are 5 tips to Help You Prioritize Your Mental Health


1. Set aside some time each day for yourself 

It doesn't matter how busy you are, you need to make sure that you're taking some time out each day for yourself. Whether it's a few minutes in the morning to meditate or an hour in the evening to read or take a walk, carving out time for yourself is crucial.


2. Make sure you're getting enough sleep 

Sleep is essential for our physical and mental health. When we don't get enough sleep, we're more likely to be irritable and stressed. Make sure that you're getting at least 7-8 hours of sleep each night.


3. Eat healthy and exercise 

A healthy body leads to a healthy mind. Make sure that you're eating nutritious meals and getting regular exercise. Exercise is a great way to reduce stress and improve your mood. Try to squeeze in at least 30 minutes of activity daily. If 30 minutes in one sitting is too much, you can break it up into more manageable chunks. For instance, you can go on three 10-minute walks daily or have two 15-minute yoga sessions (one in the morning and one at night).


4. Connect with friends and family 

Social support is crucial for our mental health. This could come in the form of family, friends, or a professional therapist. When we feel isolated, our mental health suffers. But when we have people to lean on, we're much more likely to thrive. Spend time with people who make you feel good and who understand what you're going through.


5. Seek professional help if you need it 

If you're struggling with your mental health, don't hesitate to reach out to a professional. A therapist can help you work through your issues and develop coping mechanisms. While therapy can be expensive, there are more affordable options. You can look into group counseling sessions or online wellness sessions as the ones offered by Empath.


We hope that these tips will help you to start working on your wellness, both mentally and physically. It can be tough to make time for yourself, but it’s so important that you do. We want you to be at your best, and that starts with taking care of yourself! For more health and wellness tips, make sure to check out our other articles on Sheroes!
