Hi, My Name is Nira Goyal,
I am the founder of Teen Mental Reset (TMR)
I am a college student at the University of Pennsylvania and an advocate for mental and emotional health. Seeing the mental health issues in my personal extended family, the issues I myself see in school and other teens, and the impact of the pandemic on mental health, I started Teen Mental Reset Inc.
My hope is to help the community by increasing awareness and removing the stigma surrounding mental and emotional health issues through this not-for-profit under IRS Section 501(c)(3).
Hi, My Name is Nira Goyal,
I am the founder of Teen Mental Reset (TMR)
is to create a positive environment for everyone.
I am working hard to find ways to discuss the issues that impact teens’ mental and emotional health. No one questions if we discuss or seek help from a professional on physical health issues, mental and emotional issues should be no different. Through TMR, I would like to :
Promote Awareness
I strive to promote awareness about mental health issues affecting adolescents and teenagers.
Reducing Stigma
I do not believe in succumbing to stigma. A diagnosis does not determine who you are or what you can do. Let us work together to create a stigma-free society.
Help Others
I want to bring people to a platform where they feel at ease and willing to ask for help.
Create Self Efficacy
My hope is that everyone experiencing mental health issues will be proactive about taking protective steps, such as regular physical activity, effective communication, better sleep habits and many more topics I will discuss.
Self-care
is how you take your power back.

Tips For Your Mental Health
Exercise
Regularly
Walking for 30 minutes daily can improve mood and health. Exercising a little bit every day will add up, so do whatever you can, even if it isn't 30 minutes.
Eat
Healthy
A balanced diet and water can give you more energy and focus in the day. Try to avoid caffeinated beverages (coffee/soda).
Get Sleep
Try to stick to a schedule and get enough sleep. The CDC recommends 8-10 hours of sleep for teenagers. Blue light from electronic devices can make it hard to sleep. So try to avoid blue light exposure before going to bed.
Do a Relaxing Activity
Try relaxation or wellness programs or apps that may involve meditation, muscle relaxation and breathing exercises.
Create Goals
& Priorities
Decide what you need to do now and what can be done later. Say "no" to new tasks if you think you have too much on your plate.
Practice Gratitude
Remind yourself every day of what you are grateful for. Be specific and write it down.
Focus on
Being Positive
Recognize and challenge negative and destructive thoughts. Work to counteract them.
Stay
Connected
Talk to your friends and family, they can provide you with emotional support and help.
