intentionally kind to other people. These acts of kindness towards others, big or
small, can make an impact on how we feel about ourselves.

when we are struggling. Our mental health is a very important part of living a healthy life, and oftentimes, getting together with a trusted person, a counselor, or a doctor can help empower us to overcome internal struggles we might be facing.
