Learn to relax
In modern society, many people live in constant stress, it becomes more and more difficult for them to relax. But if this is not done, then gradually experiences, stress, fatigue accumulate. This leads to a decrease in performance, to the occurrence of diseases and to the development of chronic fatigue syndrome.

Communication with positive people
Mental health can also be maintained by socializing with good friends, family and friends who feel calm and peaceful around them.
Experts say positive emotions are essential for health. If in the environment of a person there are only those who are constantly in the negative, you need to find an opportunity to communicate less with such people. This does not mean that it is necessary to break off relations with relatives or work colleagues who are not doing well in life. The main thing is to find those with whom you can communicate easily and freely. And try to meet with such positive personalities as often as possible.
Attention to nutrition and fitness
In order for the psyche to be in order, first of all, you should take care of your body. After all, a physically healthy person also has a healthy mind, it is difficult to disagree with this.
Experts believe that proper nutrition, good rest, healthy sleep and exercise really help maintain not only physical, but also mental health, prolong life and prevent the development of many diseases.
When a person is in pain, it is difficult to stay in a good mood. If a woman or a man, for example, is overweight, this can lead not only to illness, but also to depression. When a person eats a lot of salty and fatty foods, there is a decrease in the activity of the mind and performance in general.
To take care of the psyche, it is worth changing the diet, eating more fruits and vegetables, drinking freshly squeezed juices, mineral water, excluding snacks, eating less baked goods and sweets.
For those who are just going to give up junk food, it is important to be patient. Changes do not take place in a few days, but it is difficult at the very beginning of a new path. When the body is rebuilt, and this will surely happen, self-confidence will appear. In addition, irritability, fatigue, and drowsiness will gradually disappear. More energy will appear, mood will improve and the risk of many diseases will be significantly reduced.
Physical activity is also necessary. Jogging or just walking in the fresh air for at least an hour, exercise, meditation, relaxing practices, massage - all this is necessary for a modern person to stay in good physical and mental shape.
Find a hobby
To maintain or improve your mental health, it is important to do what you love. If there is no way to change jobs that do not bring joy, you should find a hobby that allows you to get a charge of positive emotions and, at least for a while, forget about problems.
