Mind Matters: Supporting Mental Wellness

February 20, 2025

Mental  health is just as important as your physical health. Here are some ways to take care of your mind and body:

Take a Mindful Moment: Feeling stressed? Try a short mindfulness meditation to calm your mind.  You can also practice deep breathing: Breathe in for 4 seconds, hold for 4, and exhale for 4.

Rest & Recharge: Sleep is your superpower! Aim for 8-10 hours each night. Try yoga before bed to relax.

Connect with Others:  Talking to a friend, family member, or teacher about your feelings can make a big difference. 

Positive Thoughts Only: When negative thoughts creep in, challenge them with positive self-talk. Try using an affirmation like: I am capable, I am strong, I can do this!

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, remember: You’re not alone! Reach out to a trusted adult or check out TeenMentalHealth.org for more tips and resources.
