Why mental health ties hand in to healing your trauma
My video on this. Doing habits like meditation, gratitude journaling, having a positive mindset, delaying gratification and etc. That ties hand in hand to healing your trauma. Why? Because to commit to the practices of healing trauma I tell you to do, like processing unprocessed trauma incidents. Generic mental health / happiness advice is the pre requisite almost to your healing journey. So prioritise your mental health and happiness. The 4 most important things for your mental health are: 1. Mindset, honestly this one is the only non negotiable most of our misery / suffering in life comes from the “monkey mind,” our mind constantly is searching for problems / annoyances to solve as that is how we are wired, and most of the time our automatic thoughts are just plain stupid and misleading, and make us feel awful, you can fix this by understanding the concept of the annoying roommate, think of the bad negative thoughts in your mind as it is being said by an annoying roommate, do not try to fight it but rather see the humour in it. 2. Meditation, daily meditation is great and I recommend the Medito app for this, this will make you more present, which is great for happiness and it will help you focus on positive thoughts rather than negative thoughts. 3. Gratitude, of you express gratitude every day whether that be from voice notes, journal entries, whatever, that is so good as that trains your brain to fixate on positives. 4. Exercise, this one is non negotiable, and I would say particularly adventurous cardio is the most beneficial exercise for mental health, being out in nature and getting sunlight, of you do that daily you will greatly improve your mental health, and even gym workouts or whatever is great as to have good mental health you can’t be a couch potato. Hope this helped and remember generic mental health you gotta get this to a good level, think of it like a pre requisite to your healing journey.
