About this episode

Nature is the theme for this week's Mental Health Awareness Week, and Dan is encouraging listeners to go outside!

In this mini-episode, Dan shares how this week's theme ties into his mental health behaviours and offers tools he uses on a daily basis that help take care of his mental well-being.

For those getting started with a brain care routine, Dan emphasizes drinking water and going on daily walks. Reserving JUST 10 minutes in nature and staying hydrated will help your brain health. Supplements, gratitude, and additional tools can follow.
