Awesome video! Our external enviornments are so influential on our mood and
mental health. Yet most people forget that a person reacts to the situation
they are in and tend to attribute their mood or mental health issue as an
internally based issue. It is great to see such a detailed video on this
topic! Well done.
+JessTheMoose Thank you! Im glad you enjoyed and I agree that it doesnt seem to be very well known by some people just how impactful our environments can be on our overall well-being and mental health - but it really is quite pivotal in life, so hence trying my best to cover the topic :)
Excellent information and valuable advice, Becca! Our individualistic
culture often tends to make us underestimate the impact of
environmentally-related factors (as well as social and cultural contexts in
general) on mental health issues. So, I find it interesting that you
address this aspect of the problem. And I would go as far as to say that
our current "epidemic" of mental illnesses (in most industrialized
countries) cannot be fully solved only through individual strategies.
Thanks again for the video
+maccall36 Im glad to hear you found value in it! I agree that addressing our environments, both personally, locally and nationally, are all key steps that need to be taken in order to address how wide-spread mental health issues have becomeOn an individual basis though, its basically about always striving to heal and remain positive, so Im really hoping people will gather from the video that adjusting your environment to you needs as much as possible, is essential in order to have the most success with those concepts :)
