Are you ready for a mental wellness that is as unique as your fingerprints? Let’s embark upon a journey of fortifying your mind with a simple but profound strategy: embracing more and eliminating less. It’s time for us to change the mental health habits we have, starting today.
What if I told that improving your mental health can be as simple as adding color to your plate and cleaning up your digital space? Intrigued? Tamieka Welsh is a social worker who has a wealth of knowledge.
Start with the More:
Did you know your gut is a second brain? It produces 95% serotonin, a neurotransmitter that boosts mood. Diets high in whole foods can reduce depression by 25% to 35%.
Exercise has been proven to reduce anxiety and depression, while improving sleep quality.
- Reading : Immerse yourself in a book and watch your empathy, cognitive ability, and stress levels change.
- Setting clear boundaries: No more guilt. Prioritize your wants and limitations to foster stronger connections and reduce anxiety.
Sleep is essential for emotional and cognitive balance.
Now, the Lesser:
- Social Media: The digital universe is buzzing, but at what price to our mental peace. Reduced anxiety and depression can be reduced by cutting back on social media.
Journaling can help you shift your inner dialogue from a negative to a positive one. - Disarray : From a cluttered mind to a cluttered house, organization is the key to reducing anxiety and boosting levels of dopamine.
But how does it translate into real life? Let’s be honest, the modern world is a whirlwind. We are constantly bombarded by information and expected to be accessible 24/7. Yet, we are told to be more efficient and happier. This paradox can leave us feeling burnt out and overwhelmed.
Enter the More, the Less approach : A strategy to cut through the noise and give you back control. It’s all about making small changes that snowball to significant improvements in mental health.
Your mental health is a superpower. It’s time to harness that power. Making a list of’more’ or ‘less’ will help you create a routine which not only strengthens but also supports your mind.
Watch as your mental well-being grows when you embrace the journey. Remember that the path to mental health is personal and has never been easier to access.
