Abstract:   (741 Views)
  This short communication reflects on this year’s mental health day. The theme for this year is ‘Mental health is a universal human right’. However, here the  focus is on simple instances (politeness, and the culture of apology) to highlight how these could contribute to improved psychological well-being and mental health. It is hoped that by insisting on such deeds we could spread kindness in our community to make it a safer place for living and make life more enjoyable regardless of its all difficulties and limitations.
Keywords: Mental health, Politeness, Culture of apology
