It's great to see people taking the initiative to prioritize their mental health. Here are some tips for the activities for each day of the week: Mindful Monday: Practicing mindfulness can be a great way to reduce stress and increase focus. One simple mindfulness exercise to try is to find a quiet place to sit, close your eyes, and focus on your breath. Try to clear your mind and simply observe your breath moving in and out of your body. If your mind starts to wander, gently bring it back to your breath. You can do this exercise for as little as 5 minutes or as long as 30 minutes. Tech-free Tuesday: It's important to be aware of the impact that social media and other forms of technology can have on our mental health. Consider taking a break from social media and other electronic devices for a few hours or even the whole day. Use this time to connect with loved ones, engage in a hobby, or spend time in nature. Walk on Wednesday: Exercise is a great way to boost your mood and reduce stress. If you don't have a lot of time, even a 15-minute walk can help. Consider taking a walk during your lunch break or after dinner. You could also try incorporating walking into your daily routine by parking further away from your destination or taking the stairs instead of the elevator. We hope these tips are helpful and that you have a great Mental Health Month! If you need help or resources please reach out to our district mental health coordinator Nancy. https://www.ellsworth.k12.wi.us/page/mental-health-resources
