Good afternoon parents and students!
As we head into the holiday season, the temperatures are dropping and the time we spend inside will be increasing. While we continue to be vigilant about preventing the spread of COVID-19, it may mean less time with extended family and friends. It is important to make taking care of yourself a priority. For some of us, it might mean getting more sleep, being more active, drinking more water, or feeding our body more nutritious food. As simple as some of these things might sound, many of us are not meeting our own basic needs and our health is suffering as a whole. With so much uncertainty in our communities as we continue through this pandemic, please take this reminder seriously. Take better care of yourself, you matter and those around you matter!
Please Pass the Love is sponsoring several self-care workshops online for middle school and high school students. Parents please encourage your students to participate. Maybe take that extra step and sit in on the workshop with your student. Make a plan together to help each other practice self-care!
