“Did you know that people with mental illness can have strong mental health? More often than not, mental illness and mental health are used interchangeably, however they do not mean the same thing! Every person has mental health, but not every person will have a mental illness.

Mental health is improved by journaling, yoga, exercise, healthy boundaries, good diet and active self-care!”
