Mental Health Focus
Prioritize RestWhat can I do to take care of my mental health? Taking care of yourself means building time into your day to do a quick activity that improves your mental health – which in turn improves your physical health.
We'll provide these quick tips to help you ultimately lower your risk of disease, lower your stress, and hopefully improve your outlook on life. Today's tip: Prioritize rest as part of your self-care.
Rest, including both sleep and relaxation, is an essential aspect of maintaining good mental health and overall functioning. It’s not just about feeling less tired; it plays a fundamental role in how our brains and bodies function on a daily basis.
