    6 Ways To Prioritize Your Mental Health

    Your mental health deserves the same care and attention as your physical health.

    Tending to your mental health is all about recognizing your unique needs and developing practices and habits to honor them. This can feel challenging and even selfish at first, especially if you’re not used to getting your needs met. But it’s the antidote to stress, anxiety, depression, and burnout so it’s worth the practice and dedication.

    If you struggle to prioritize your mental health, try these six tips, and remember that the best way to support the well-being of others is by first taking care of yourself.

    1 | Stand up to negative self-talk

    Sadly, the biggest bully most of us face is staring straight at us in the mirror. Notice when you’re beating yourself up, interrupt the thought by saying ‘stop’ and then say something kind to yourself. With time, the kinder voice within will have more power.

    2 | Interrupt repetitive thoughts

    Cycling through what-ifs and if-onlys is exhausting and anxiety-inducing. The antidote to being stuck in a sea of repetitive thoughts is presence. That’s why meditating can be so helpful. It builds the muscle of concentration so that we can refocus the mind whenever needed.

    3 | Stop saying yes when you want to say no

    Your time is a limited and valuable resource. If you try to please everyone, you not only purchase a one-way ticket to burnout and resentment, you also deny yourself the pleasure and growth of focusing on what you value. Be intentional with your time.

    4 | Tune into and honor your needs

    It’s essential to check in with ourselves when we spend a lot of time in front of screens as we can easily become disconnected from the body and what it needs. Are you thirsty, hungry, craving connection, or in need of a break? What kind of support do you need at this moment?

    5 | Move your body

    We were born to move. Yet, we so often find ourselves in front of screens day and night. The drain of the screen does little to inspire movement, so it’s important to pre-plan opportunities to walk, dance, stretch, or exercise. All of which can boost your mood and reduce stress.

    6 | Ask for help when you need it

    When life gets difficult, it’s a common tendency to retreat, which can lead to isolation. We aren’t meant to travel through hard times alone. It’s important to reach out for support from trusted loved ones and mental health practitioners.

    • Sometimes being selfish is the best thing one can do.  http://ow.ly/tzZO50AbKxR  Take care of yourself first, so you can take of others. 😀 #happiness #happysoul #happyness
    • Check out the new XLR8happy blog! http://ow.ly/H25t50AbKnl
    • Breaking my silence about what I believe is a powerful thing we can all do to change the world for the better: Achieve long-lasting happiness from within. If you don’t know how to do that, and are pressed for time, the new blog XLR8happy offers great info synthesized from a lifetime of research into what happiness is and how it works. https://bit.ly/3e4ry23 Up until now, maybe the key we had been missing from the MIND-BODY- SOUL happiness puzzle was the lack of a practical definition of what a soul is. XLR8happy dares to give the world such a definition, in an attempt to speed up the time it takes for a person to reach long-lasting happiness and to help complete the happiness puzzle. TRUE HAPPINESS is possible for EVERYONE. There is no need to push anyone down in your journey towards happy because the world is a huge, wonderful place and diversity is at the heart, what makes this world wonderful. The power is yours, don’t pass it on to external people or things. Welcome to the world XLR8happy!
