Unit 1: Psychohygiene – Strategies for Mental Well-Being

Psychohygiene is the mental equivalent of daily hygiene. It’s about taking small, consistent actions to maintain mental health, prevent emotional exhaustion, and create a lifestyle that supports well-being. We all know how important it is to brush our teeth, eat well, and keep our bodies clean — but how often do we think about doing the same for our mind?

✔️ Explain what psychohygiene is and why it is essential for mental and emotional well-being.
✔️ Recognise common challenges and habits that undermine psychohygiene.
✔️ Apply simple, daily strategies to prevent stress and emotional fatigue.
✔️ Build a personal plan for maintaining strong mental health.
✔️ Use practical tools and exercises to support ongoing resilience and balance.
