S01 E08: How To Balance Life's Highs and Lows

I want to send out a little positivity to those who may be feeling the highs and the lows. It’s good to have a balance between negatives and positives. Treat yourself with kindness and respect, and avoid self-criticism. Make time for your hobbies and favorite projects, or broaden your horizons. Do a daily crossword puzzle, plant a garden, take dance lessons, learn to play an instrument or become fluent in another language.Like it or not, stress is a part of life. Practice good coping skills: Try One-Minute Stress Strategies, do Tai Chi, exercise, take a nature walk, play with your pet or try journal writing as a stress reducer. Also, remember to smile and see the humor in life. Research shows that laughter can boost your immune system, ease pain, relax your body and reduce stress.https://www.mhanational.org/31-tips-boost-your-mental-healthhttps://linktr.ee/nikimarieradiohttps://www.instagram.com/nikimarie_radio/Hosted by NikiMarie, a Mental Health Advocate and Radio Personality for Nassau Community College Radio Station, 90.3 WHPC.
