Mental Health Awareness Month - Self Care Tips
May is Mental Health Awareness Month. This past year has been especially hard for everyone, and taking care of your mental health is so important. We’re excited to be celebrating and raising awareness with the 8123 family all month long!
Are you interested in writing a guest blog for our mental health series? We’d love to host you! Please email chelsea@eightyonetwentythree.com for more info if you’d like to contribute.
To kick things off, we asked you to share you best self care tips with us - here’s what a few of you had to say!
“Probably my best self care tip is for you to escape for awhile from the things that bother you by doing what you enjoy…well my escape is reading books and listening to The Maine! (Seriously) -@chocowackoooo
“I go to group therapy sessions that are organized by NAMI. Not only does it help my mental health but the people in the group have been my backbone throughout the pandemic.” -@LittleEin
“Listening to all songs of The Maine 24/7 everyday” -@reysheldlcrz
“It’s going to sound daft but one of my favourite things to do when I need a bit of self-care is to have a bath: get a bath bomb, light some candles, put a face mask on, watch re-runs of your comfort TV show and just relax” -@harrietyelnats
