How To Improve Your Mental Health by dansmog(m): 6:25pm On Apr 26, 2012
Try the following tips to help plan a week that will leave you feeling good, inside and out. If you are
receiving treatment for a mental health problem, these tips can help you manage your illness and support
your treatment and recovery.

SUNDAY

Relax. Try meditating, taking
a walk in a natural setting, or reaching out spiritually
or through prayer. Quiet reflection, alone or in the
company of others, can improve your state of mind,
strengthen your sense of self and community, and
give you time away from a hectic schedule to collect
your thoughts and re-energize for the week ahead.
monday Make a plan. Decide what
tasks you need to complete for the week and make a
plan for when and how to do them. If you are
overscheduled, decide what can wait a week or two.
If you don’t have much on your schedule, plan some
activities you’ll look forward to.
tuesday Surround yourself
with supportive people. Make plans with family
members and friends, or seek out activities at which
you can meet new people, such as a club, class or
support group. Reconnect with someone you have
lost touch with and create new memories.

WEDNESDAY

Take care of your body.
Taking care of yourself physically can improve your
mental health. Be sure to eat nutritious meals, avoid
cigarettes, drink alcohol only in moderation, drink
plenty of water, get enough sleep and exercise regulary

THURSDAY

Give of yourself. Volunteer
your time and energy to help someone else.
You’ll feel good about doing something tangible to
help someone in need—and it’s a great way to meet
new people who share your interests and
compassion.

FRIDAY

Broaden your horizons.
Create a change of pace or expand your interests.
Explore a new hobby, plant a garden, plan a road-trip,
try a new restaurant, take dance lessons, or learn to
play an instrument or speak another language.

SATURDAY

Value yourself. Treat yourself
with kindness and respect, and avoid self-criticism.
Take stock of the qualities you like about yourself,
your accomplishments and abilities. Take some time
every day to relax, reflect and rejuvenate.

I was reading your post. The way you have described the steps I think if we follow them it can help us a lot. Mental peace is very important for the overall well being and one must try to attain it. It not only helps in personal life but also in the professional life.
