Mental health

Our mental health and our bank balance are intrinsically linked.

A change in our earnings can result in our mood deteriorating. But equally, a change in our mood can lead to our finances changing. We may also try to self soothe by shopping and spending, which all well and good if you can afford it.

It can be difficult to know what to do and to stop things from spiralling. So this section contains some hints, tips and ideas about boosting your mood and sense of wellbeing.

Little changes can make all the difference and hopefully, some of the articles here will stop your mental health from escalating. So try some of these things and see if they work for you.

Vacations are back, and if you have a destination spot you like to visit, it may be time to consider a Wyndham Timeshare for your vacation accommodations. First take a look at timeshare resales, as they offer a great price and an affordable entry point into the timeshare marketplace.

This website uses *affiliate links. This means that sometimes if you click through to a website and register or purchase something, I may get a commission from that sale. It won’t cost you anything, but it helps me with the electricity bill! Click here to find out more.
