I never know about things like this until people start posting about it on Facebook. I really appreciate that there are days like this to bring awareness to all of us. Boy, do we need to be taking care of our mental health. The older I get, and the more I have going on, the more I realize how much I need to care for every part of me: spiritually, physically, emotionally, and mentally.

So here's what's funny: before I knew about World Mental Health Day, I wrote and scheduled this post:

 

What I wrote was not at all related to World Mental Health Day. What triggered my desire to write this was all I continually hear from college students and other young adults. Apparently taking a "Mental Health Day" is a thing now. You can miss class or not go to work because you need a Mental Health Day. I share my thoughts on this here.

 

And for the record, I am currently hiding in my room away from all my kids because my friends are awesome to give me this time to rest and refresh. Today is my Mental Health Morning, I suppose. :)

What is your favorite way to find rest and refreshment?
