Here are 8 everyday ways to support positivity |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Stay connected. Reach out to family and loved ones.
Social connection is an important way to reduce and prevent symptoms of depression. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Be grateful.
Create a gratitude journal and write down three things to add to it daily. Cultivating an attitude of gratitude supports a resilient “psychological immune system.” |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Meditate.
Pause, take in that deep breath, and reflect on the goodness that surrounds you. When you notice your mind wandering, acknowledge your thought without judgment, and gently return your focus to your breathing. Practicing mindfulness and grounding will allow you to respond, rather than react to your circumstances. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Eat well.
Depression and anxiety can lead us to skipping meals or eating low-quality “junk foods” that can contribute to low moods. Eating nutrient-rich foods – like fresh fruits and vegetables, lean protein, and whole grains – can contribute to a balanced mood. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Sleep well.
Poor sleep has been shown to significantly worsen the symptoms of many mental health issues. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Consider limiting screen time.
Excessive screen time is generally linked to progressively lower psychological well-being. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Get moving!
Find a form of fitness you really enjoy – hiking, biking, yoga, basketball, walking the dog. Getting outdoors is a huge bonus, because exercise and being outside have both proven to help reduce depression and anxiety. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Practice kindness.
Kindness doesn’t have to be a grand gesture. Find small ways to help, give compliments, offer empathy, listen to others, send a thoughtful message. These are great ways to solidify positive relationships. By focusing on others, we can take our minds off our own problems and worries. And acts of kindness release the hormone oxytocin, which is associated with feelings of happiness and well-being. |
