As a recipe for maintaining a healthy psyche, you can use the following.
– Work hard. Labor is the best medicine (both physical and mental, it is desirable to alternate).
– Hobbies, communication, sports. Such types of activities return the fullness of sensations, give vigor, allow you to feel pleasant fatigue, and restore efficiency.
– Observe the daily routine (sleep, healthy eating).
– Manage your emotions. Managing anger and negative emotions is an important factor in good mental health and an indicator of your emotional intelligence.
– Time to relax with pleasure (sleep at least 7-8 hours, walk in the fresh air, travel, meet new people).
– Eliminate bad habits to the maximum.
– Find positive in every situation (whatever is done, everything is for the better). We learn to notice and enjoy the simplest things: good weather, the first spring flower, an evening with the family.
– Learn to smile. It is not so difficult to smile at a passer-by who has turned to you with a question, a child in public transport, to greet his son, husband, friends with a smile.
Without a doubt, even the most comfortable conditions do not guarantee that the physical and mental health of children will be ideal. Each child is unique in its own way, as is the structure of his psyche, so sometimes even in a complete and friendly family, children who are insecure and in need of psychological help grow up.
It is important to timely identify mental problems in children and protect them from undesirable consequences through participation, advice, and, if necessary, seeking qualified help. The best way to prevent unwanted consequences is to constantly observe the child and record the manifestations of symptoms, as well as compare his actions with the behavior of peers. Only by giving proper attention and participating in their lives can the susceptibility to depression be identified.
