Why Mental Health Matters to Me
One secret I fail to keep is that I grew up poverty-stricken. Food banks, Hud housing, and bill roulette was ingrained in the Rice Household daily. With the lack of funds came the lack of proper medical care. I can count on one hand the times I saw a doctor when I was a child. And two of those times were emergencies (shot in the head and a sliced finger, stay tuned for my memoirs). So, it shouldn't come as a shock that mental health was nowhere on my radar.

Sensational
The human body has five senses that allow us to perceive and interact with the world around us: sight, hearing, touch, taste, and smell. Sight, or vision, is the sense that enables us to see colors, shapes, and movements through the eyes. Hearing, or audition, is the sense that allows us to detect and interpret sound waves through the ears. Touch, or somatosensation, is the sense that gives us the ability to feel pressure, temperature, and texture through the skin. Taste, or gustation, is the sense that lets us perceive different flavors and distinguish between sweet, sour, salty, bitter, and umami tastes through the tongue. Finally, smell, or olfaction, is the sense that enables us to detect and distinguish various odors through the nose. Together, these senses provide us with a rich and complex experience of the world around us.

Dealing with Stress
1.Exercise. You may fight stress with exercise in addition to helping your physical health. Make time each week for a physical activity you enjoy. Moving your body will allow you to focus your thoughts and prepare you to tackle the difficulties you are facing. This may be accomplished by going to the gym, going for a run, or even doing a few moderate yoga stretches. If you can combine exercise with other stress-relieving activities, like going outside or hanging out with friends, all the better.
