WELLNESS WEEK #3 –

Stress/Handling the Holidays – Nov. 8th – 12th

You need stress in your life! Does that surprise you? Perhaps so, but it is quite true. Without stress, life would be dull and unexciting. Stress adds flavor, challenge, and opportunity to life. Too much stress, however, can seriously affect your physical and mental well-being. A major challenge in this stress-filled world of today is to make the stress in your life work for you instead of against you.  Stress is with us all the time. It comes from mental or emotional activity and physical activity. It is unique and personal to each of us. So personal, in fact, that what may be relaxing to one person may be stressful to another. It is easy to feel overwhelmed and full of stress during the holidays. This week will be devoted to learning ways to cut down on stress so you can enjoy the holidays and life more.  Below are a few calendar items to put in your agenda.

Wednesday we will have a sweats day.    Please take this day to put on your comfortable sweatshirts and/or sweat pants …no slippers for this day though. J

Exercise is a great stress relief.  Come to a free and fun Zumba class on Monday and Wednesday after school in the cafeteria.  Work off your frustration and pick up some moves to bust out at the next grade-level party.  All students and staff are welcome to participate.  Be REAL!
