Tips to prioritize your own mental, emotional, and physical health
SUMMARY: On International Self-Care Day, nurse practitioner Courtney Ponder emphasizes the importance of prioritizing mental, emotional, and physical health. Many people neglect their self-care, focusing instead on their children or elderly relatives. Routine wellness visits are crucial for everyone, not just for urgent care. They involve screenings and preventative measures that can catch health issues early, including mental health evaluations for conditions like depression and anxiety. Ponder encourages individuals to assess their health habits, noting that even simple activities like a 30-minute walk can significantly improve overall well-being. Regular checkups and self-care practices are essential for maintaining good health.
