Give yourself a break says the guy who should follow his own advice. I’m hard on myself for various reasons. I shouldn’t be that way.
Everyday Care For Mental Health #WorldMentalHealthDay #mentalhealth
The best way to help others in their struggles with mental health is to simply ask how they are doing. Listening and being present is a great way to be there when things are tough. Best of all it doesn’t cost you anything other than a little time and maybe a cup of coffee. If you see someone struggling, say something and let them know they are never going to be alone. If you are struggling ask for help. It might be hard but its worth it.
Quote Of The Day
The right to religious freedom ends where religion is being used as an excuse to harm other people.

Today’s World Mental Health Day #WorldMentalHealthDay
Mental health is linked to physical health in so many ways. It’s important to take care of yourself holistically because the world is a tough place to cope with.
For me in this season of life, grief is a part of that mental and spiritual health piece you cannot ignore. Losing a loved one can impact your whole being. The emotional response to loss is very individual and sorting it all out takes time.
Getting help and support can make the difference. Don’t go through the tough times alone. Plenty of people who have gone through times of illness can guide you through. Of course taking care of self is important too. Whether it be a doctor or counselor or clergy person there are resources out there when you need it.
Working on being well makes life worth living.
