A quick google search defines mental health as “a state of well-being in which the individual realizes his or her own abilities, can cope with the normal stresses of life, can work productively and fruitfully, and is able to make a contribution to his or her community.” This, to me, means that mental health is multifaceted, there are many ways we can go about nurturing our inner world, and that our journey inward will be as unique as we all are. The key is knowing what we need when we need it. 😊 Whether it be spending a week doing things you don’t normally do like me in this video, a week of meditating for 10 minutes a day, a week of morning pages, a week of reading 30 minutes a day, or a week of learning something new every day—which mental activity would you like to focus on for the second week of January and commit to doing for every single day of this week? 💪✨ — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — How to Un-potato Your Life in 2021 playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLcou5MbftfZKDexAIQpTVVMxHpQWWirKd 💞Download Vibely's app (online community): https://app.vibely.io/productivepotatoes 📝 Weekly challenge templates: https://www.notion.so/Productive-Potatoes-Worksheets-54c2ac27e0cd484bbda17f94c5890acb JANUARY: How to Have Your Best Year Yet • Week 1: Physical https://youtu.be/o5ong_LDB68 • Week 2: Mental (this video 🌝 ) • Week 3: Emotional (coming 01/16) • Week 4: Social (coming 01/23) Don't be a stranger 🙃: • IG: http://instagram.com/rowenatsai • Subscribe to my channel: http://bit.ly/subrowena • rowenatsai@gmail.com — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — Chocolate bars: https://carartisanchocolate.com/ OUR NEW JEWELRY LINE w/ Ana Luisa: ✿ Bracelet: http://analuisa.com/rowena-bracelet ✿ Necklace: http://analuisa.com/felicia-necklace ✿ Set of both: http://analuisa.com/beauty-within-set ✨ If you’re at all curious: • My spiritual practice, Falun Dafa http://bit.ly/2z49zqz • If you're interested in reading more, start with this to get an understanding of what qigong entails http://bit.ly/2u8DXOC • The main text we read is Zhuan Falun* http://bit.ly/2t48xJP *Best to read start to finish in the shortest time possible for the highest benefit. • If you want to learn more about Falun Dafa and qigong, check out local contacts in your area - there are practitioners globally and in most big enough-ish cities: http://bit.ly/2E0PL6S • My friend Chris over at China Uncensored made an incredibly informative video on what Falun Dafa is and why it's being persecuted in China (YT video): http://bit.ly/2CR9yZQ — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — Video edited by Rowena Tsai https://www.instagram.com/rowenatsai/ Music from Epidemic Sounds: http://share.epidemicsound.com/V39z8 Camera & Equipment 🎥: • Canon point and shoot https://amzn.to/2ZH8p0Q • Canon mirrorless https://amzn.to/3moR07b • Canon wide-angle lens https://amzn.to/3kpMinS • Rode mic attached to mirrorless https://amzn.to/32yXwQO • Rode mic for voiceover https://amzn.to/2FsbwTO • Manfrotto 3-section tripod http://amzn.to/2sPRaIu • Manfrotto mini tripod https://amzn.to/32BEucD • Final Cut Pro X
