Why is your emotional health important?

Higher self esteem

Positive outlook

Your emotional health is just as important as your physical health. Be in touch with yourself and pay attention to its signals.
So, what should you do?
Boosting emotional wellness
Aside from strengthening the connections around you of family and friends, you can adopt a pet. This could counter loneliness, and depending on the kind of pet, may also encourage you to spend time outside, and increase your physical activity.
Also,
• Notice emotions, both positive and unpleasant, as they arise. This enables you to process them in a healthy manner.
• Dial down your inner critical voice and turn it into an opportunity.
• Be curious! Explore and understand your feelings and thoughts.
