Our Mental Health

Is Paramount

By Ruth Elizabeth StiffPublished about 4 hours ago 1 min read
We must look after our minds

“Joy is a vitamin for the soul.

You should have a little every day.”

We take vitamins for our bodies

every day

to make sure that our health stays balanced.

Our mental health is just as important!

Looking at “Joy” as a vitamin

is a really good way

of understanding how essential

our minds are to our overall well-being.

There are 13 vitamins

that our bodies need to be healthy.

How many ‘qualities’ or ‘emotions’,

like joy,

are good for our minds?

We do not necessarily take all 13 vitamins

in tablet form every day,

but we take what is strongest

for our physical health.

Our mental health is just as paramount!

A ‘dose’ of joy every day

makes us feel

happy, confident and “good” for the day.

Joy is not just an emotion

but it is a positive way

of living with a purpose in our lives.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

    I see how joy could guide us to better health. Describing joy as a "vitamin for the soul" is a powerful analogy. It suggests that joy is just as essential to our well-being as any physical supplement. This was uplifting and fantastic work once again. 🤗🌼
