I am pretty sure that we all remeber the Latin proverb that says 'Mens sana in corpore sano', in English it is 'A sound mind in a sound body'. That literally means in a healthy body there is a healthy mind.

Let's talk a little bit about that.

In 2022 Serbia will send very interesting song to the Eurovision Song Contest. It is called 'In corpore sano', and it has a very deep message. It is about problems in healthcare system of Serbia, and about some other very important things. Today, I would love to talk about those other things that are very important.

Those things are problems with mental health.

There is a part of the song that says

"In healthy body, body is healthy

and now what?

Sick mind in healthy body,

Sad soul in healthy body,

Desperate mind in healthy body,

Frightened mind in healthy body,

And now what?"

This is my favorite part of this song.

Here is the whole song in case that you want to hear it.

The part that I have written here is originaly in Latin.

If your body is healthy that is great, really, but what about your mind and your soul? What about your mental health? What about how you feel deep inside?

Your mental problems can really damage your body. For example depression can lead to many problems with your body.

I would love to talk about mental health in general. Not about one specific illness or problem, not about one example, not about one thing. Mental health is not one thing.

Mental health is a bunch of things. Bunch of feeling, bunch of processes that you will have to pass trough.

Your soul and your mind are as important as your body, and you need to give them the attention that they need and that they deserve. You need to do good things for yourself.

Many people have a spa day once or twice a month. That is a day when they are taking care of their body whole day. They are doing things they love to their body and that helps their body look good and feel good. How many people have a mental spa day? Not many.

Many times I have heard that we should look great when we feel bad so other people will think that we are great, and we will send positive energy to the Universe... and that is great, but if you do not feel like doing something, you should not be doing that. Do not force yourself to do anything what you cannot do at the moment. Give yourself time. Give yourself care. Stay at home, cry, eat your favorite food, forgive yourself because you have not done something what you wanted to do...

It is okay if you failed your exam, you will have another try very soon, it is okay if you lost your job, something better will come to you...

Whatever is happening to you it will pass. You will pass trough it, you will get what you want to have, just give yourself time. Everything needs time, that is normal and that is okay.

If you are taking good care of your body that is okay, that is great, but do not forget to take care of your mind and your soul.

In case that you have any problem with your mental health, ask for help, talk to people around you, talk to the proffessiona. You are normal, you will be okay. It is normal to feel bad, to have various problems with mental health, that is happening to people all around the world.

There are still many people who are ashamed of their mental health issues, and that is wrong. That is a problem and it can be solved if you ask for help. If you do not ask for help, it can lead to some terrible things. So, do not be ashamed, illess is illness, problem is problem, no matter if it is mental or physical.

It is important, pay attention to your mind and soul.

You need them more than you think.

See you soon,
