Caring and prioritizing mental health is a personal journey for all of us. Each person has their own unique ways of ensuring that they are prioritizing their mental health while also balancing the other aspects of life. By definition, mental health includes physical, emotional and social well-being. By recognizing what genuinely helps us feel better, we can enhance our overall well-being. It is important to take time for self-assessment to maintain a healthier balance in our lives and foster resilience.
Letʻs hear from some of our Iwikuamoʻo Staff of how they care for mental health?
“I love winding down each night by taking time to get ready for the next day. I tidy the house, set my alarm, lay out my clothes, pack my bags, prep my food, and fill up my water. It's such a nice way to wrap up the day and helps me sleep better, knowing I'm all set for a calm, happy, and productive morning. This little routine has become my sacred time - a chance to take care of my future self by creating a positive and fresh energy for a new day” Jessica Taiatini, Executive Assistant.
“Every morning and evening, I started to drink the Positive Energy & Immune + Stress tea from Yogi Tea, and the tags on the tea bag come with a short quote or affirmation. I started to collect these tags and use my tea time to meditate and reflect on the quote that resonates with me, brings me joy, or gives me strength. It started to become one of the few moments in my day I look forward to the most" Shylynn Kawamoto, East Hawaiʻi Adulting 101 Trainer.
“I recently started this journaling challenge called the '5 Minute Journal'. Every morning and right before I go to bed at night, I do this 5 minute journal entry that requires me to focus on themes of gratitude and positive reinforcement. In starting this, I noticed right away that my approach on each day improved and I went to bed at night feeling complete" Raynn Dangaran, Communications Coordinator.
