Can 2019 be the year we beat mental health?

Our knowledge and understanding about mental health continues to improve with more open discussions around the subject.

It is the growing crisis of our modern world as we become more extreme in our hobbies, beliefs and ideas.

We live so much in our heads and no longer balance our time with healthy physical pursuits like walking, playing and exercising. Just think how much time is at a desk, in front of the tv, on your smart phone, playing computer games or drinking / eating.
We need more reminders to be kind to ourselves, to remember that our health is important - both physically and mentally.

I've included a link to the Metro newspaper's 13 Mental Health Resolutions.

Two other interesting articles I just came across is about shrinking brains and anxiety in a recent study written in the Daily Mail. This led me to read up on how to increase your brain size. Interestingly, many of these are already recommended for depression and anxiety. 

Wishing you a very happy and healthy 2019!
