💪🏽✨ The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommend adults get at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity or 75 minutes of vigorous-intensity aerobic activity each week, plus muscle-strengthening activities on 2 or more days a week. These guidelines are essential for maintaining overall health, preventing chronic diseases, and boosting mental well-being. 🩺📚 Providers in the mental health field and across all medical professions: it’s crucial to remind your patients about these exercise guidelines and educate them that these recommendations are for a lifetime. Encouraging patients to prioritize physical health can significantly ward off diseases and improve mental health. Let’s start making a change today! 🌟🏃🏾♀️🧘🏽♂️ #HealthGoals #PhysicalHealth #MentalWellness #CDCguidelines #HealthyLifestyle #PreventiveCare

As reported by the Center for Disease Control (2020), #suicide is the second leading cause of death among high school-aged youths, only followed by unintentional injuries. Research indicates that comprehensive #SuicidePrevention can successfully reduce the prevalence of suicidal ideation and behaviors by implementing programs, practices, and policies that prevent suicide (such as family programs) and supporting persons currently at risk (through psychotherapy) (CDC, 2021). At #YPM, we focus on #RiskPrevention in order to help young people build self awareness, skills to manage their emotions, and overall resilience. We also support parents in learning how to recognize when their child might be #SufferingInSilence. If you or someone you know is struggling with thoughts of suicide, please contact the International Association for Suicide Prevention to find your local hotline or contact emergency services in your area.
