MENTAL HEALTH IS AS IMPORTANT AS FOOD TO THE BODY

Before you read the title so quick and move to read the article with curiosity let me tell you that the person who has written this particular blog has also been under bad mental health space this is just to make you comfortable in case you have been through bad times before.

People live in denial about mental peace when they forget that even a person with a wide happy smile is under pressure. What awaits us further in life is definitely a road with obstacles, but lets not destroy our mental health because of a few life hurdles.

Maybe we haven’t trained our mind enough to fight wrong territorial thoughts and maybe that is why we are all suffering

Everybody at some point in life has felt like drooping with pressure or losing their mind or facing deteriorating health issues and its everybody’s story, but coping up with it and stepping into a brighter day is what we need to learn.

TIPS TO HELP RELIEVE ANXIETY/STRESS:

  • Drink more of water when you feel stressed, this will help you calm down for a while
  • Stop overthinking when you feel upset, more of negative thoughts will worsen the situation
  • Try to journal when in stress this will channel your pain in an effective way
  • Read a good book which will uplift you in the crisis
  • Do not binge eat when in stress, just eat a fruit or take in a few nuts
  • One of the successful mothod is meditation, breathe in and breathe out tip is never out of fashion and always in trend

Stressed mind reflects the negative energy double times, it overpowers and constantly forces all the possibilities in the situation which mostly isn’t pleasant and positive

MENTAL HEALTH IS AS IMPORTANT AS FOOD TO THE BODY

QUICK FOOD GUIDE FOR YOUNG ADULTS

PICTURE EDITED FROM CANVA

As growing adults, our mind is loaded with thoughts and we are running down with repetitive busy schedule. In this time nutrition is important.

spare a minute and just think of all the junkies you have been eating this whole week and now count one if you had a junk item today and one more point if you had something yesterday, add up for the complete week and see how much you have been loading up on the unwanted stuff.

for young adults it is hard not to crave for a slice of pizza overloaded with cheese or to munch over constant fried street food and it is understandable and so lets not use heavy words like restrict/stop/abandon/avoid but lets create a balanced cycle

what we consume is what reflects in the body , it happens to influence the mind too!

Let us all have cheat days too but not often because our bodies are not going to be the same forever

There will be times where we will feel the need to go all healthy at once and develop vegetable routines, enhance healthy yoghurt drinks, consuming energy boosters like nuts, snack on fruits, have a little caffeine rush and munch on those meatballs but it would simply look new and foreign because its happening all at once so lets not load our body and start with little and then initiate ourselves towards healthy eating so that it becomes a habit later on.

Lets take resolutions of healthy eating:

  • I will eat vegetables as much as I can, even if I hate it
  • I will try to start a planner for my fitness too
  • I will develop proper eating habits which include food from all food groups
  • I will sleep maximum of 8 hrs of sleep to work with good peace of mind
  • I will at least try eating the food that I have been avoiding over the years
  • I will eat minimal junk food and plan my cheat days accordingly and compensate with healthy food
  • I will not binge over packed foods

The above lines might look heavy but it is not impossible. We as the younger generation contain so much of information but we fail to follow and practice, lets try to create a change within and shine brighter.
