Be Kind To Your Mind 2020 has been a stressful year for all of us. It's more important than ever that we find ways to cope with stress. In fact over 40% of Canadians have reported that their mental health and anxiety have declined in the last few months. But there are many things that we can do to help improve our mental fitness. Here are some ideas to help all us get though these challenging times together. -Have a routine. Structure your day and maintain positive habits.... -Take deep breaths. Simple breathing exercises can help ease stress. Try breathing in deeply, counting to three, hold for a count of three, and then slowly breathe out, counting to three. -Call or virtually connect with loved ones. Lean on each other for support. -Exercise, dance and have fun. Blow off steam and boost endorphins. -Let in the sun. Open windows. Sunlight can improve your mood. -Help others. Volunteer to pick up groceries or walk the dog for a neighbour who is self-isolating. Helping someone else can make you feel good. -Stay informed. Check credible sources of information for updates but take breaks when needed. Taking in the news all day can be draining. Unplug for a bit and recharge listen to music, meditate, read or listen to a podcast instead. -Look for the positives. Share inspirational stories of people helping one another. -Have a routine. Structure your day and maintain positive habits. -Engage your brain. Do a word search, Sudoku, jigsaw or crossword puzzle. -Seek help. If you are feeling overwhelmed, reach out.
