The Mental Health and Well-being Corner serves as a place to understand and develop a positive mental health attitude. This will serve as a place to exercise the mind and complement your physical exercise program. As we all know, physical exercise/movement is essential for MS. What you may not be aware of is that exercising your mental health is just as important for healing.
Join me on this journey to learning to live a healthy life – physically and mentally!!!
