Mental health is an important and crucial element to your well-being that sometimes gets overlooked. We are often taught how to take care of our bodies but what about our minds? This is what controls all of the functions in our bodies, tells us when to eat, when to sleep, and releases all the hormones that keep us happy, motivated, and operating in a healthy way.
If your body is able to get out of bed physically but your mind is causing you stress, anxiety, and lack of motivation, what health are you really in? Mental illness can be much more than what we normally consider big diagnoses such as ADHD or Bipolar. It can be as simple as social anxiety or as common as depression and hoarding. According to mentalhealthamerica.net, 1 in 5 adults have a mental health condition. The good news is the stigma associated with mental illness is decreasing and the resources surrouding it are increasing! If you or someone you kow would like to find some resources, check out:

At Bio-One, we love being able to help people during difficult times. Unfortunately, we see the aftermath of a lot of terrible situations. For us, this business is all about helping people and making something hard a little bit easier in the way we know how.
This week, April 8-14th is National Crime Victim's Rights Week. We want to show our support for crime victims and all those affected. If you know anyone who is a crime victim, take them out to lunch, ask them about their story, or do something helpful to pass on kindness.
At Bio-One, we see first hand that clutter and hoarding can overtake someone's life. It may not happen quickly but over time, it starts to affect those living in that environment and everyone around them. The third week of march starts Clutter Awareness Week.
If you or someone you know is showing signs of clutter accumulation, now is the perfect time to sit down and talk about it. This may be a difficult subject as objects can become personal and emotional as we attach our memories to them. According to the American Psychiatric Association, "The worst thing to do is to volunteer to go in and throw things away for them or to go in and throw things away when they are not around." Upsetting your loved one will only make things worse. Having a conversation and letting them know professionals can help work with them is the safest and easiest way to declutter a home.
Bio-One is here to help. We have franchises throughout the United States that are qualified and eager to help. Take a look at our locations page to find a Bio-One Franchise near you.
