How to Take An Effective restorative Mental Health Day.
Take a Mental Health Day:
Respite and self - care are key to a healthy mind and body.
Catch up on sleep.
Unplug detox from electronics, social media and email.
Indulge in self-care activities, like getting a massage, taking a bath, or reading.
Spend time with friends or loved ones.
Get some exercise, try to venture out into a forest or go to a lake, walk, anywhere outdoors. Negative ion therapy is crucial for our cels to thrive
Meditate, use grounding tools.
Declutter your space, a cluttered space is a cluttered mind
Draw, paint, anything that taps into your creative flow.
Gardening.
Give yourself permission to do absolutely nothing. Recharge and enjoy.
Journal, write out your thoughts and feelings. Do this by pen to paper instead of typing- this deepens the content processing and supports emotional health. The brain then feels validated and heard. Closes the open - loops in your mind. Writing by hand slows cognitive decline.
