Mental Wellness: 5 ways to treat your mind better:
1) Meditate or take 15 seconds for slow intentional breathings throughout the day
2) Get up and walk around at least 2 times a day without your phone
3) Give your brain a rest from stressful tv, (including stressful entertainment tv/movies once a week) your brain doesn't know the difference
4) Exercise at least once a day if you can or once a week to start (anything is a start!)
5) Be patient with yourself & others
