Mental Health Advice 🩵

This bag of wooden coins with positive affirmations on them caught my eye a few days ago. I find it so empowering that the smallest things can make such a big impact on a person’s life. There are some people in my life that struggle with mental health and it’s hard to see it happen to the people you love, especially when you don’t know what to do to help them. 💔

What is some mental advice that stuck with you the most? How can you be helpful when you see someone struggling with their mental health?

I love this sometimes you need a positive affirmation to get through the day

I am learning to be conscious of my feelings. I begin the day with a positive song. My daughter’s teacher said she has noticed that she sings or hums it throughout the day.
