Take a look at your lifestyle and identify ways to increase positive interactions, minimize negative ones, and create more meaning in your life.
Humans are social creatures. We were designed to live in community with one another. Loneliness and isolation are harmful to our health, and we have a deep-seated need to be connected to others. This need for social connection is one of the factors that contributes to mental health issues such as anxiety and depression.

Positivity plays a role in mental health, too; we tend to feel down when things go wrong, but we feel uplifted when we get encouragement or experience moments of grace.
