A Quick Mental Health Reset

2/20/2022

 
Our days can be so busy.  Sometimes there just isn't enough time to do all of the things that you need to get done. And sometimes on those days, we can't always fit in the exercise class or the dinner out with friends.  Here are a few suggestions for a quick mental health reset this month.

1.  Look up the time of the sunset and watch it for 10 minutes before and after the sun sets.
2.   Do 2 yoga poses that you enjoy.
3.  Do a 3-minute meditation and focus on your breathing.
4.  Drink a cup of hot tea outdoors or in a quiet place.
5.  Dance to your favorite song.  
6.  Put on perfume or cologne.
7.  Eat a light snack.
8.  Text a friend.
9.  Edit one photo that you recently took.
10.  Smile internally and know that you are doing the best that you can today.
