Mental Health Check

February 14, 2022

Classes are now fully in swing and students are back into their old routines. Some of those routines could disregard their mental health. There are a few steps you could do to make sure you are taking your time to take care of your mental health.

First and foremost, make sure you are taking care of your physical health. Go outside, exercise in the gym, and continue a good hygiene routine. With that said, make sure you are managing your time properly. Good time management helps control your stress levels by keeping you organized.

Another important step would be to journal. Journal, journal, journal. Even if it is five minutes every day, take the time to journal your day, how you were feeling throughout the day and anything else that would help let out any emotional struggles. No one has to read this journal, it is strictly for you. Even the people that you surround yourself with don't need to know. Make sure those people that you are surrounding yourself with, are good people, even if you only communicate virtually.

After you journal for the day or at any time that you would like, take some time to practice mindfulness via meditation. This could be in any interval you deem necessary for your mental health. There are plenty of other steps that could be taken to help with your mental health. The list goes on and on. Your mental health is important, so take the time to figure out what works for you and utilize it.
