Our lives are quite busy shuffling kids around, getting to appointments, the grocery, gym and other commitments. There is so little time for yourself, especially if you are a parent. As we all know, we all need time to recharge and refocus. But how do you find the time? Here are five easy ways to focus on mental clarity in your Audi vehicle in appreciation of Mental Health Awareness month.

1. Take a drive through nature for a renewed sense of purpose
Seeing and hearing the sounds of nature can drastically improve mental health. Even if you aren’t able to walk around among trees with the sounds of the birds chirping, you can still take a drive and roll down the windows. Yes, Audi's do have a fantastic sound system, but turn that off for a moment and feel a light breeze and see some beautiful trees and plants. Getting outside of the city and taking a scenic drive with views of water can help improve outlook and mental clarity. Give it a try!

2. Listen to inspirational music and podcasts to aid your mental wellness journey in your Audi
There are no shortage of inspirational podcasts to help us with mental clarity and tips on self-care. There are podcasts that can help with grief, postpartum depression, anxiety and more. Queue one up and focus on the uplifting benefits and advice they provide. Alternatively, if podcasts are not your thing, fire up one of your favorite playlists. Whether that is country, hair bands from the 80s or K-pop. Listen to what you love! It’s a surefire mood booster!

3. Roll down those windows in your Audi and get some fresh air – a surefire way to improve mental outlook
Got a sunroof or a convertible? Put the top down or open up that sunroof and let the light and wind surround you and live in the moment. Even if it is a short drive while you run an errand, the short reprieve from the hustle and bustle of daily life may be just what you need to lift your spirits.

Electric Vehicles – stress less about gas prices and car costs!
4. Fuel prices are through the roof and there seems to be no indication of the prices coming down to pre-pandemic levels. With inflation chipping away at disposable income, an Electric Vehicle (EV) gives you the peace of mind that no matter how much driving you need to do, you won’t have to pay a cent for gas. Because they are electric, they require no oil changes, fuel filters or spark plugs! Check out these Audi EVs.
Additionally, for those environmentally conscious (who doesn’t love mother earth, right?), an electric car produces zero emissions. Driving an EV means lowering greenhouse gas emissions which leads to cleaner air and naturally, better quality air we breathe.

5. Safety features give us a sense of peace – worry less knowing your car is keeping you safe in your Audi!
Safety features have evolved tremendously to keep drivers unharmed. The main difference is that in the last couple decades safety has transitioned from protection on impact to preventing an accident from ever happening. This is achieved by safety features like pre-collision braking, lake departure warning, backup cameras, tire pressure sensors and even emergency call buttons that allow a driver to connect with help on the road.
