Ira Khan on mental health
The post read, “Growing up, we were all taught how to take care of our bodies—what we should do for daily maintenance to avoid illness and injury. Science has also unraveled what we should do for our minds as a whole. We just haven’t been taught it yet. You may have heard of self-awareness, self-compassion, coping mechanisms, self-regulation, etc. It may sound like Instagram talk or therapy jargon. However, if you remove those words, you’ll find that these concepts are highly relevant to all of us. We all grasp these ideas. And if you’re still not feeling well, just as you would with a persistent headache, you should seek help from a professional. Let’s provide our mind with the maintenance and nourishment it needs, because your mind deserves to be cared for! Try emotional hygiene.”
