Question: What tools do you try and use in your daily life to manage your own mental health and wellness?
Answer: "When it comes to implementing tools into my daily life, I take an eclectic approach. I think it is important to keep a repertoire of tools that are easily accessible. The variety of tools I use are based on the five domains of self-care (physical, social, mental, spiritual, and emotional). With practice, you can become self-aware of an area that may feel out of balance and redirect your focus where it needs to go. The tools I use to help promote and manage my mental health are a gratitude journal and a breathing/meditation app. Nature can be an essential tool by allowing your mind to reach a state of tranquility when engulfed in its vast beauty. I find that a brief check-in with yourself throughout the day can go a long way. Recharging your batteries doesn’t have to be a tedious process. Deep breathing or simply enjoying a cup of your favorite tea, can provide those moments of reprieve when the demands of daily life become overwhelming."
