  Speaker 3: Yes, exactly. So May's mental health awareness, as Gina just said,
• 0:39
  Speaker 3: and it's a really great time to check in with ourselves,
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: with our friends, with our loved ones. And I have
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: just a few tips that can help us to improve
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: our mental.
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: Health, okay, because it is, after all, just as important
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: as your physical health. It's healthcare. It's all healthcare.
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: Absolutely, yes, absolutely, they they all tie in together. And
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: my first recommendation is to spend some time in nature.
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: Nature has been shown to uplift mood, reduce stress, and
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: even help us to increase levels of concentration. If you're
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: able to take a short walk during your lunch break,
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: and if you aren't able to go outside consistently, they've
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: seen that even a houseplant near you can help give
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: you some of those same.
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: Benefits on the front porch for five minutes yesterday. That'll
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: do it.
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: Hey, that's great. Yeah, okay, are you yelling at the
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: neighbors all.
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: The cars that we're going by? Cars?
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: Hey? You kids?
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: But house plants, uh? I insist they be real. I
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: don't think you get the same benefit from a plastic plant.
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: You have lots of benefits. I can. I can send
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: you that study. I'll have to pull it up.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: Okay, okay, what's number two?
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: My next recommendation is to connect with loved.
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: Ones, make connections of all those ties that I've severed.
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah, not necessarily. I mean connecting with the people that
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: we truly care about and care about us. Of course,
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: has been shown to reduce stress. It also helps us
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: to live longer if we have a good social network.
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: So building those connections and putting an effort to keep
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: them strong throughout your life will actually help you to
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: live a lot longer and your mental health will be better.
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: Number three, Number three, and this one's a big one.
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: Take care of your body. You know, our mind and
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: body are not separate things. Supporting the one definitely supports
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: the others. So, not to sound like a broken record,
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: but eating healthy foods, drinking, getting your body. All right,
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: all of these things are going to help your mind
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: as well as your body.
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: You are such an egg.
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: I know I'm non stop with this.
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: I should want you to be healthy.
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: I want you to live a long, healthy life, exactly.
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: Nurses are funny that way.
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: Isn't it too much care?
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah? Next, we've got a creativity that's interesting.
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: Yeah, So doing things like arts and crafts, writing, even
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: just dancing. Anyway that we can express ourselves in somewhat
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: creative ways. It actually helps to build emotional resilience, which
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: means that we'll actually manage stress and difficulties better when
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: they do a rise in our life.
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: Adult coloring books are those still a thing?
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: I think they are and they're fun. I like them?
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: Okay, all right? Next? Is this this is the final?
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: Yes, this is the final. Next is to relax. I
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: very strongly believe that rest is not something that has
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: to be earned. It is something that we need physically
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: emotionally in order to continue being a human on this planet.
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: So give yourself permission to wind down, Maybe take a
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: warm bath, listen to your favorite music. Do some breath exercises,
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: whatever it is that helps you to relax, even just
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: for a moment.
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: I would assume that you would encourage me to abandon
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: my saying I'll sleep when I'm dead.
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah, No, absolutely, I would.
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: Encourage Yeah, I'll take a break when i am when
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: I'm dead.
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: I will abandon. Can be too late, okay, Uh? These
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: are these are all I mean, they're they're they're there
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: are things that we should consider every day, each one
• 5:01
