Mental Wellness Month
January is MWM: here are some resources
Mental Wellness
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), mental health is defined as a state of well-being in which a person realizes their own abilities, can cope (using healthy methods) with the normal stresses of life, can work productively, and is able to make a contribution to their community.
Being proactive about mental wellness can lead us to being more solidly mentally healthy. Ways to focus on mental wellness: reduce stress, get enough sleep, be mindful, deal with loss, stay socially connected, and build resilience.
