Taking Time for Yourself

Since May is Mental Health Awareness Month, we are sharing tips for taking time for yourself. Everyone needs to take some time to make sure that they are doing okay. You are allowed to take time to yourself if you are struggling. It’s also okay to ask for help. We have people around us that want us to succeed, and if not on this earth, we have a God who wants us to thrive in his plan. We may have a different plan for our lives than the person next to us, but that’s okay! That does not make our life any less valuable.

To see the article we got these amazing tips from click HERE.

Here are some of the tips we talked about:

  • Accepting yourself as you are
  • Focus on the basics
  • Find what makes you happy
  • Practice mindfulness
  • Make small goals

Thank you to Mental Health America for this article.
