Your daily lifestyle has a significant impact on your mental health. Here are five habits to let go of to help you lead a happier life.

Overthinking

Overthinking can lead to a vicious cycle which can become challenging to break. Dwelling on situations and imagining things can disrupt your mental peace.   

Passive complaining
