Counselor Connection:
Emotional and mental health is a vital part of overall health. Being healthy doesn’t mean you have to be happy all the time. Emotionally and mentally healthy people still feel stress, anger, and sadness. Being healthy just means that you’re consciously aware of your emotions. You can acknowledge them, whether they’re positive or negative.
These are some ways you can improve or maintain good emotional and mental health:
Be aware of your reactions and emotions
Stop, pause, think, then react
Manage stress levels
Create balance
Make your physical health a priority
Connect with others
Find purpose and meaning
Positive thinking
