SELF-CARE FOR TEACHERS AND PARENTS

This crisis hase been difficult for us all on so many levels.  Few words can comfort us now but there are some things we can do to take care of ourselves:

• Focus on what you can control
• Play your favorite music
• Dance
• Go for a walk or hike
• Exercise
• Cook, try new recipes
• Get enough sleep
• Eating health food
• Call a friend 
• Read
• Meditate
• Help others, volunteer
• Try a new hobby
• Watch your favorite movies or shows
• Ask for help if you need it

Many streaming services are offering free or low-cost access to movies, plays, shows, courses and many other things to both entertained and keep us feeling less isolated.  Take advantage of technology to virtually interact with  to the ones we love: FaceTime, Zoom, Skpe and other services can help us stay connect to our families and community.

We’re all in this together.  Let’s do our best to take of ourselves and each other.  Please stay safe and healthy!
