How're you?

    There is so much in the world to be Happy about. I know I get especially charged at the start of a new month. How about you? But we all go through something from time to time - and that's why MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS MONTH is so important. (see the hotline number below). At the same time, there are many things we can do to build our mind power and mental strength. I've put together some ideas just for you - from EASY MEALS to LEARNING TO RELAX and more.  

Wishing you EVERYTHING HAPPINESS -

CAN YOU  "STRESSLAX?"

Have you ever tried to relax, only to find yourself overwhelmed with feeling stressed and having negative thoughts? Turns out a lot of us experience this- which is why some have coined it "Stresslaxing."

MIND CHECK

. On the surface, some depressed people appear to lead bustling, fulfilling lives; check out their social media, and you’ll see their smiling faces and beautiful homes. They’re functioning so well that even the thought that they could be depressed seems outrageous.

SIMPLY EATING

It's not always easy making small talk. But, know that small talk is more than useless chatter. Often, it serves as a bridge to other, more meaningful topics - especially for introverts.

ARE YOU LISTENING?

Looking for direction?  Looking for answers? You never know where your guidance might come from. See what happened to me.

HOT TO WATCH?

Looking for some great shows to put on your list for May?  Well, I'm going to catch up on some shows I've been meaning to watch and might put some new ones on my list. Here's a rundown of what to watch - from  Amazon Prime Video, Netflix, Hulu, HBO Max, and more. 

Every day I post TODAY'S SMILE on Social Media. For the week - I picked this one especially for you.
