Don't forget the basics. Staying hydrated, eating nutritious food, practicing good hygiene like showering and brushing your teeth, and getting daily exercise can go a long way in supporting our physical and mental health. When we get stressed, we can forget to take care of our basic needs, so make sure to build these basics into your daily routine.
