The Science of Self-Care: How Small Habits Support Mental Health
Self-care is more than a trendy phrase or occasional indulgence. It is a set of daily practices that support emotional, mental, and physical well-being. Science shows that small, consistent habits can have a significant impact on mental health, helping reduce stress, improve mood, and increase resilience.
At Alleviant Integrated Mental Health, we encourage patients to develop practical self-care routines that fit their lives. By focusing on small, achievable actions, you can make meaningful changes without feeling overwhelmed.
Beyond Bubble Baths: Self-Care That Actually Helps Your Nervous System
