Mental health isn't an accurate term... No excuses! | Kevin Brewer | Rise Again From The Struggle

I like to challenge myself to see if I'm using phrases correctly or just following someone else's idea of what things mean.

I realize I did this with the terms mental health and healing journey.

I don't think these are accurate for most people.

Here's why. They imply you need something to physically heal. As if your body needs to complete a process on its own.

I think mental fitness is the better term to cover both for most people.

That's because what you likely need is to learn a skill and gain a little knowledge. You most likely don't have brain damage, just a weak mind. Weakness can be fixed by going to the gym. The mind gym in this case.

Tell me how crazy you think I am in the comments. I'm sure someone will disagree with me 😉

No excuses!
