2020 has been challenging and disappointing for most people. It has been characterized by political and social turmoil and, most notably, the COVID-19 pandemic.

Hearing health is usually forgotten about when it comes to taking care of your body and senses. While we generally visit a dentist for our teeth and an optometrist for our eyes, we don’t usually visit a hearing specialist for our ears and there’s a number of good reasons for this. For starters, hearing loss is so gradual that we don’t really know when it’s happening. In fact, if you like listening to loud music or are exposed to loud sounds at work, there’s a chance that you might already have a slight amount of hearing loss.

People that face hearing loss usually turn to hearing aids as a way to cope. After all, losing your hearing can be problematic in many different ways, and it’s usually in your best interests to get hearing aids so you can return to your normal lifestyle. However, there’s usually a stigma against people that wear hearing aids because it’s often associated with old age.

Have you ever experienced a high-pitched whine, buzz or ringing in your ears? If so, then there’s a good chance that you’ve experienced tinnitus. Tinnitus is extremely common and can happen for a variety of different reasons. Some people experience tinnitus because they’ve recently had a head or neck-related injury, and some people get tinnitus if they hear a loud and sudden noise. Others will get tinnitus over time, and some are more likely to hear the noise if they lay down.
Self-care entails doing things that make you happy or feel good about yourself. Self-care activities are essential to your emotional well-being and mental health. When you prioritize yourself through self-care, you become a better version of yourself. You also fill your cup with joy and energy to give the people around you. When you don’t prioritize yourself, you experience exhaustion. You need to normalize self-care rather than viewing it as selfishness. The best part is that self-care doesn’t have to be a full weekend of traveling or journaling. Check out these amazing self-care tips.
