Dear Wellness/Caafimaad/Salud
Advocates:
From surveys conducted on
First Friday, 118 out of a total of 125 students named “stress management” as
their top interest for Wellness Day. The Wellness Committee will be
working on this and in the meantime here are 4 possible resources:
·
Quiet Time on many days after school in Rm. 110 with mindfulness
facilitator, Emily Meyer. Learn how to drop your stress levels, activate
deep thought, gain self-awareness and practice ancient human traditions. Stop
in even if you're not sure and have your questions answered. For more

Tangible Thursdays: 1 touch of Oliver, the therapy
dog=instant cortisol drop? Main door before school.

7:30-7:50 a.m--musical therapy (compliments of Riley Swain and a new SWHS combo
