How fitting is it that May is Mental Health Awareness month, as we are all now, and in this week’s episode, I talk about mental health and all the various ways that it can look for different people. There is no one definition of what it means to have mental health and yet it is so easy to get stuck in unhealthy habits and patterns in reaction when feeling “negative” emotions. To me, mental health is not the absence of “negative” emotions such as anger, sadness, fear, anxiety, depression (or so many more…); it’s the ability to see, name, and sit with the emotion that is arising and not reacting to it, pushing it away or being in resistance or denial of it. I talk about the many areas in our lives in which struggle due to the coronavirus is bringing up additional challenges and offer tools for how to maneuver through these difficult times.
