Making it through the most dangerous day of the week. [Monday Mental Health]

Good morning, you!

.

Jen here.

.

Are you doing okay today?

.

Did you know today’s the most dangerous day of the week when it comes to people ending their own lives? Even if you don’t have mental illness, I’m sure you’re familiar with the Monday blues. I’ve made a relaxing chat for you to put on in the background this morning to better help you understand WHY Mondays suck–and how to scientifically survive them. .

Quick Spoiler: It all comes back to purpose. And honestly, purposeful self-care, unlike self-indulgence, relies on looking at the evidence step by step to really break down what YOU need to accomplish what you’re here on earth to do. It requires research and consistency, not ice cream and Netflix.

.

But what happens when you’re too overwhelmed to do that research yourself?

.

This is literally WHY in my Monthly Box of Rest I’ve incorporated my own research, combining physiological studies for healthy herbs and relaxation exercises with support and accountability. So I take over that research and consistency for you. It’s set it and forget it so you can focus on exploring the deeper meanings of life, on achieving your mission, while I’ve got your back.

.

It’s why the third month of the Monthly Box of Rest actually includes a consultation with me, where you and I sit down and individualize your wellness plan, whether with herbals or other self-care research.

.

Whatever self-care model you start to use to improve your Mondays, choose a model that’s evidence-based, with reminders for your consistency.

.

Take some time today to listen to this okay? And when you’re ready to let me help you make your self-care purposeful and evidence-based, hit up my Monthly Box of Rest.
