As the first few weeks of the school year have passed, you may have noticed an increase in stress for yourself or students you know. For Mental Health Monday, we wanted to cover stress in students of all ages—from highschool to lifelong learners📚

Numerous reports depict high rates of stress among U.S. teens (aged 13-17) in school. When we talk about stress, we mean the physical and mental responses to some external event🌀

Stress can manifest in ways which adversely impact the body, mood, and behavior, so it’s important to find methods of curbing stress. The main methods include maintaining a healthy sleep schedule and diet, exercising, and spending time doing things you love🏋️

Students have intense schedules, but by utilizing time management practices, it can be achievable to reverse symptoms of stress🎓

With postpartum depression popping up in the news recently, we wanted to compile a brief guide to PPD for this Mental Health Monday.

Postpartum depression, also known as PPD, is a mild to severe mood disorder associated with new parents. The three types are categorized as baby blues, postpartum depression, and postpartum psychosis. PPD affects nearly 1 in 7 mothers, while postpartum psychosis impacts about 1 in 1,000.

Though the cause of PPD is not completely clear, its symptoms are. Experiencing sadness, anxiety, mood swings, irritability, and apathy can all be attributed to PPD. If you or someone you know is experiencing these symptoms, please reach out to a healthcare provider.

With campus move-in days just around the corner, there is an opportunity to have a conversation with young adults about safe alcohol consumption🍻

The mental, emotional, and physical impacts of unsafe or reckless drinking habits in underage people can be severe. That’s why we’re encouraging parents and guardians to discuss safety perimeters when it comes to alcohol. Emphasizing points such as drinking limits, symptoms of alcohol poisoning, and the delayed impacts of alcohol can empower young adults to make better decisions.

Before sending your college-aged students off to school, discuss safe drinking. Because, let’s face it, it can’t always be prevented, so underage drinking should be encouraged to happen only in safe environments.

Tune in to this week’s Mental Health Monday🎧

There’s nothing wrong with listening to Pheobe Bridgers when you’re feeling down. But do you ever wonder why sad music seems to make you more sad?

Music has an impact on your mood. Upbeat tracks can boost dopamine and induce a more positive emotional response! Somber music, on the other hand, might keep you in a cycle of feeling low.

We asked our therapists to share their song of the summer. From Eric Church to Whitney Houston to Dirty Heads, here are some guaranteed bops from Moonlight Mental Health🎸

What’s your song of the summer? Let us know!☀️

This Mental Health Monday, we’re thirsty for knowledge💧

The correlation between hydration levels and mental health has been reviewed by a variety of studies and research articles. The general conclusion is that , or lower fluid levels, can result in negative mental health effects. This includes depression, fatigue, brain fog, and anxiety😟

Staying hydrated is a key component of self-care, particularly when it comes to maintaining electrolyte balance! Forming a routine around hydration by tracking, scheduling, and checking in with your own body can be beneficial to physical and mental health🧘 !

Stressed, anxious, or just plain curious?😝

This Mental Health Monday, we’re talking about one of social media’s newest ideas to reduce cortisol, the stress hormone. According to some, sticking your tongue out for 40 seconds can help in stress relief by interrupting any anxious spirals you might be experiencing🌀

This protocol can be practiced in three rounds of 40 seconds. Make sure to flatten your tongue, and even growl or sigh if you feel it’s right! Let’s get silly, not stressed😜
