It was Mental health day 2 days ago and I had a post in drafts for that day but forgot cus of work drama

Re-emphasizing the importance of exercise and sleep to our bodies. I’ll make this post more personal and type based off personal experience.

Exercising and having better sleep hours keeps you in a better mental space.

I’m averaging 4 hours of sleep lately and have skipped the gym for 2 months now cus I’ve been busy with work and I’ve felt even more mentally messed up than before.

Same with earlier this year, and when i got everything in place, regular workouts and sleep hours, it got better for me.

Exercising doesn’t have to be going to the gym alone(need to tell myself this). You also can go for a run or have evening walks. I’ve not been doing any.. hence, my situation

Your mental health is in your hands🤍
World mental health day

Mental health shouldn’t be a solitary battle, there are times where the weight feels unbearable but even in those moments reaching out for help is a sign of strength not weakness.

Sending love to everyone on this journey
You are not alone❤️
i think my blood pressure gets lower the more i complain.
The day is finally here (tomorrow)

Am I ready now tho? No

Will I be, by tomorrow? Probably not

Will I go ahead with the presentation like that? Yes

Will I be fine? I guess

Am I fed up of work and do I need a break? Yes.

So many questions

I do all except the one with a foam roller so far

2:50 - 4:25 are so satisfying and I do them every morning

Avoid doing these if you have any spinal disc conditions.

Was reading up stuff for my presentation at work today (which got postponed again)

And discovered the use of Nordic walking in physical rehab(idk how I’m just knowing about it)

Apparently, studies have found that it’s use in rehab showed significant improvement in balance, aerobic capacity and functional mobility

Some days ago.

I was about to manage this patient (during the outpatient clinic sessions) and didn’t check the documentations on her or anything, why?

Cus I was tired and lazy(horrible of me)

Guess what? She had Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) which had just been resolving( a colleague told me as I was about to proceed with the session)

That was a close one fr

So I almost got hit by a car today

Am I fine?
-Yes

But if you asked me on a deeper level

Am I fine?

- Well, I’ve never been so shocked before, my life flashed before my eyes and it’s so funny now what if it actually hit me😂

People need to do better and watch before they move. Cus the driver literally popped out of nowhere without looking.

My ortho surgeon today was positively giddy today when he saw how well the titanium hardware he installed is holding up in my leg after walking on it for a month!

How do you sit?

Most of us here sit all day, working on our PCs.

Pretty sure this comes in handy.

Stay conscious of how you sit, make sure you adopt ergonomic friendly equipments and arrangements.

No pain if you’re doing it right, y’know
