Wellness Week Blog Series: How Are YOU Feeling - Part II

“A good night sleep can do wonders“

The Rocky Mountain Spa & Wellness Association dedicates the first week of every month to all things wellness.

In this three part blog series contributing author, Ellie Whalen, will explore simple steps we can take to get our health on track and live WELL!

Sleep Matters!

We all know a good night sleep can do wonders, but the facts are, getting consistent, quality sleep is a major health benefit. Sleep helps to IMPROVE mental focus, heart health, weight control, blood sugar, mood, immune function and athletic performance. 

No wonder Sprayology SleepEase has been our #1 selling formula for 20 years!

Emotional Health 

Being emotionally healthy doesn’t mean you’re happy all the time. It means you’re aware of your emotions. You can deal with them, whether they’re positive or negative.

Emotionally healthy people still feel stress, anger, and sadness. But they know how to manage their negative feelings. They can tell when a problem is more than they can handle on their own. They also know when to seek help. The past year has been a mentally challenging time for many people. Below we have listed some healthy practices and areas to assess and work on to improve your emotional health.  

• Be aware of your emotions and reactions.  
• Express your feelings in appropriate ways.  
• Think before you act.  

• Manage stress.  
• Strive for balance.  
• Take care of your physical health.  
• Connect with others.  
• Find purpose and meaning.  

• Stay positive. 

Stay tuned for Part III launching Wednesday, June 2!
