Summer Activities to Support Your Mental Health

01 Jun 2024 by Ted Escobedo   1 min read

Summer is a great time to be active and get outside. There are many summer activities that you can do to support your mental health and practice self-care. Here are a few:
• Go outside and explore. Bring a book with you to read in a shady area, take a walk, or go hiking. The sun’s natural vitamin D can significantly influence your mental health.
• Start a garden. Gardening can be a great mindfulness tool and social activity you can do with friends, family, and other community members.
• Make a summertime playlist. Music is a great way to improve your mental health, motivation, and mood.
• Attend community events. Go to the local farmer’s market, outdoor movies, or festivals. Having fun plans gives you something to look forward to and be excited about.
• Try outdoor meditation or yoga. Practicing mindfulness can help support your mental health. Doing it outside will allow you to soak in the sunlight and get closer to nature.
