Holistic way of treating mental illness
Hello, again!! It has been a long while since we've gathered together to talk. I'm so sorry about that. But things will change such as set up a schedule. Every Sunday there will be a post talking about health, creativity, law of attraction, the beauty of my home town, etc.
Well, with that said, let's get into this week's post: a holistic way of treating mental illness. If you have a mental illness where you have to take medication you might not be able to get off them. It might not be safe enough. But you can create a life style to add to the medicinal regimen to have a healthy way of being. *This can be for everyone*.
I have tried pretty much tried every one on this list. So here we go:
1. Don't forget your fruit and veggies. They are full of antioxidants (cancer fighting), fiber (you need a clean out), vitamin C.
2. Get up in the morning and have a couple glasses of cold water with lemon juice. This will wake you up and help you flush out any toxins. Plus, don't forget to drink 8 glasses of water a day. This will give you energy and keep you full.
3. Keep moving. Go for a walk. Go for a hike. Go to the gym.
4. Do something creative. Write anything where your imagination is used. Using your imagination can be therapeutic.
5. Get your emotions out. Use a journal and get what your hate and what you love one as many pages as you want. Doing this will help you listen and read what is you. I say this way is better because, excuse my French, but therapists suck.
6. One thing that I find really works is meditation. I have an app on my phone called, Insight Timer, and I choose the background music and the sound that tells me the 10:00 minutes is up. Plus, you can choose the amount of time you want to spend with your inner self. I also have an oil diffuser where you can have what ever scent you want. Last night I chose orange blossom. It smelt radiant.
I hope these suggestions were helpful. I find that spending time with oneself has a positive impact on how your health turns out in the long run.
Well, tata! See you next Sunday!
