Prioritizing Your Mental Health: The Power of Self-Awareness


Listen Later

I'm here to give you some tips and recommendations on how to take care of your mental well-being, but remember that only a professional can give you a formal diagnosis. Let's get started.

I want to invite you to take a look at your mental health and make it a priority. I know it's a topic that you hear everywhere these days, but there's a reason why it's so important to have these conversations. We live in a world where most people have or have had some kind of mental health problem and the thing is that it's not always so obvious, that's why it's so hard to identify them and act accordingly.

It's important to remember that in these issues, there are no rules and everyone's different. What works for one person may not work for another. That's why it's so important to get to know yourself and your body to take care of yourself the way you need to.

Let's start with the power of self-awareness. It's important to be able to detect your mood and sense of humor when you feel good. It's important to recognize how you feel in your body and mind on good days and to familiarize yourself with your emotions and the way they present themselves in you.

Once we understand how we feel and see ourselves when we're good, it will be much easier to realize when something's not right. Maybe we start to notice that we're not finishing what we start or maybe we're feeling a lack of motivation or a constant state of exhaustion. Even our discomfort can manifest through disorder or disorganization, isolation or even physical symptoms.

The point here is not only to know yourself, but to be in touch with yourself and to constantly check in on how you're feeling, so you can act accordingly. It's also important to remember that we're not going to feel the same way every day. That's why it wouldn't make sense to behave the same way every day. ¶When you wake up in the morning, take a moment and detect the emotions that are present, ask your body what it needs and explore the thoughts that are going through your mind. Once you do this, you'll be able to decide what to do. For example, if one day you wake up feeling sad and without energy, give yourself permission to dwell in that emotion. Allow yourself to feel it and maybe even take a day off if you can.

In summary, it's important to make your mental health a priority and to practice self-awareness in order to take care of yourself in the way you need to. Remember, if you're feeling overwhelmed, don't hesitate to reach out for help.
