Mental health is something that impacts each and every one of us. Some more than others and everyone's experience of mental health is different, but we are all human and we all have experienced positive and negative experiences, thoughts and moments every day and throughout life. 

In today's podcast, I share the top 5 things I do to help manage my own mental health. These are small habits and mindset hacks that I use to help shift me from having a bad day to having ‘bad or tough’ moments within a good day. 

In this episode, I cover:

  • My top 5 habits... 
    • Journaling, a morning routine on my own, getting into nature, allocating worry time and being around good people 
  • I discuss why meditation is not on my list.
  • Why I struggle with meditation and coming to terms with not doing it 
  • Understanding you have the ability to choose your thoughts and emotions and how you can actually do this 
  • How I journal at the moment and where to start if you want to try it 
  • The traps of modern-day apartment living and why that is detrimental to our mental health 
  • The chemical reaction of sunshine on our bodies and why it is so important 
  • How and why I created a low tolerance to complaining 
  • The underrated value of comfortable silence with people you love 
  • Why choosing who is around you is so important to our own emotions 


We all need to find the habits and the mindset shifts that best work for us and our current situation but I really encourage you to give these a go and try them in your life to see the impact they can have.

Remember, If you do have serious concerns for your mental health or that of someone around you make sure you speak with a medical professional. 

Sending you all love and happiness!
