Mental Health & Self-Care Tips

Have daily impromptu solo dance parties. Reminding yourself it’s more than okay to ask for help. Take a short few-minute breaks every 90 minutes to catch up with someone weekly who inspires you. When you feel joy, intentionally make yourself stay in the feeling for a few more minutes longer. — Dr. Deepika Chopra, Optimism Doctor

Having amazingly unique, deep, fun, special, laugh-till-our-faces-hurt connected experiences with the people you love the most. — Tricia Clarke-Stone & Antoinette Clarke, Authors

Plan weekends that allow for escapism. It's always a good idea to shake up the norm, escape domestic patterns, and return feeling grateful for your routine. — Quentin Jones, Artist

Be connected to nature. Whether it’s playing tennis at a park by the water, taking the dogs to the beach, going on a hike, having a glass of wine at some wineries with friends, or watching a rainstorm. — Danielle Collins, Pro Tennis Player

When life is hard, stop for ice cream, have a therapist, spend quality time with the kids and spend quality (alone) time with your partner. Rinse and repeat! — Marina Larroudé, Designer

See the sun in the morning in order to get your day started in the most ideal way. — Elise Peterson, Artist & Podcaster
