5 free 'vitamins' that keep mental health in check

A new initiative encourages individuals and organizations in Estonia to focus on daily habits that support mental health through a month-long program.

In a recent announcement, Peaasi.ee has launched an initiative promoting a month-long mental health 'vitamin cure', which encourages individuals, businesses, and organizations to adopt daily practices that support mental well-being. Anna-Kaisa Oidermaa, the head of Peaasi.ee, emphasized the simplicity of these habits, highlighting that being mindful in daily activities contributes significantly to mental health, helping to combat anxiety, stress, and fatigue.

The initiative runs from now until March 22 and aims to make mental health a priority throughout the year, with a heightened focus during this designated month. Oidermaa clarified that these 'vitamins' are not just another self-improvement project; rather, they represent ongoing practices that support mental health. This approach underlines the importance of consistency over time in maintaining mental well-being, encouraging participants to engage with these practices regularly.

The program also invites collaboration with various partners to enhance the impact of this campaign, emphasizing that maintaining mental health is a continuous effort. The current focus on meaning signifies an acknowledgment of the deeper aspects of mental well-being, encouraging individuals to explore and support their mental health in an accessible and practical way.
