Whether you are going through a rough time or just need a mood boost, these are three tips to increase your mental well-being.
Track your mood in a journal. This may seem small, but trying to get out how you feel on a page can be extremely beneficial. If you’re stressed, you are taking the time to un-jumble your thoughts and make a clear action plan. If you’re feeling down or anxious simply writing down why can be like telling a close friend.
Meditation. There are plenty of youtube videos and apps that can guide you through meditation. Clearing your mind is a great way to challenge negative thoughts or even just to give yourself the time to look at your problems in a new light.
