How are you today? It's such a simple question, and yet it is also one of the most difficult questions we ask one another. More often than not, we don't truly express our feelings for fear of burdening others with our personal situation. But that speaks to a much larger topic. In wake of another horrific tragedy, the issue of mental health keeps coming up. While it is easy to point to mental health at a time of tragedy, the reality is it is something that isn't taken seriously enough in everyday life. Mental and emotional health are critical, especially in an age where people are stressed so greatly. In this episode, we look at the importance of mental health and how we can mitigate the negative effects in the hopes of becoming a more functional society of sensitivity and compassion.
