ROHNERT PARK, Calif., July 3, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Self-care, an outwardly umbrella term, connects us to many different areas of life — like wealth and finance. When thinking about the term, it might not seem to have any connection to mental health or finance whatsoever. However, self-care is not all about long days at the spa with massages and facials. It's also about connecting with oneself and doing what's best for mental health just as much as physical wellbeing. A chief source of both mental health and financial stressors today are student loans. Ameritech Financial, a document preparation service company that assists federal student loan borrowers in applying for available repayment programs, recognizes the long-term effects that financial stress specifically can inflict on people.

"There are many ways to limit financial stress," says Tom Knickerbocker, executive vice president of Ameritech Financial, "but one is living within your means."

Living within one's means, according to Latoya Irby in her article "How to Successfully Live Within Your Means," may involve seven major steps towards financial stability and living debt free.

Just as important as living within one's means, being debt free can help maintain positive health and wellness. For example, Kristin Wong at The Cut writes about how debt can be tremendously damaging to one's mental health. It is important to feel good financially not only in the current moment but also in the future.

Ameritech Financial understands the amount of stress that student loan borrowers are under and helps them figure out what kind of repayment options they might have available to them. Borrowers may be able to reduce financial stress by entering into a federal income-driven repayment plan (IDR).

"Paying off student loans can seem overwhelming, but here at Ameritech Financial, we can offer assistance in applying for income-driven repayment plans to potentially help start relieving some of that stress so you can hopefully be more able to do what is best for your mental health," said Knickerbocker.
