Mental health should be one of the most important priorities in your life. Here are 10 things that you might want to interest you in to help with your mental health.

1. Having a nice cup of tea!

Amazon

Enjoy a nice cup of tea. Tea can help with calming the mind and can help when it comes to anxiety. I recommend Harney & Sons African Autumn. To me, it is a relaxing tea and is caffeine free!

2. Starting a bullet journal!

Facebook

A bullet journal is a way just to organize your thoughts and have everything written out. When you write out your thoughts in a organized way it can help organize the thoughts in your mind.

3. Eating healthy and delicious food!

Facebook

Food, food, food. It is so important to watch the food that you are eating. There are so many energy boosting foods that can help boost your mood such as dark chocolate, bananas, etc..

4. Just walk it out!

Sometime you don't even have to buy anything to help deal with your mental health. Simply taking a walk, and breathing in outside air may be what you need to collect yourself.

5. Curling up with a coloring book!

Amazon

Investing in a coloring book is something very helpful. Coloring is a way to get your mind off things, relax, and even just be a kid again.

6. Investing in a diffuser!

Amazon

Getting an oil diffuser may just be the right thing for you! An oil diffuser has helped many people fall asleep when their mind is racing and helps relax. This could be something to invest in if you have anxiety that keeps you up at night.

7. SLEEP!!!!!

Oh how we love free thing such as sleep. It may not be as easy for everyone but just getting some sleep can honestly help so much. Sleeping helps re-energize your body, your mind, and makes you feel much better.

8. Reading a good book!

Amazon

Buy yourself a good book that can help when it comes to your mental health. Buy yourself a book that helps with what your dealing with and gives you advice on how to deal.

9. Getting some exercise!

Getting in some exercise and getting into a routine does go a long way. I have read once you get into a good routine it can help boost your mood, it takes your mind of certain things!

10. Just talking.

It is helpful to find someone you can talk to and express yourself to without any judgement. Try to find someone who actually cares about what your are expressing, this can go a long way.

Dealing with your mental health doesn't always cost too much, but taking care of yourself should always be essential.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself?
