Wellness & Well-being Highlights January 2

Wellness & Well-being Highlights

for the

Week of December 25, 2022

 

This week’s edition of our Worker Wellness & Well-being blog consists of topics from improving your mental health in 2023 to the importance of making connections to how COVID’s learning loss may negatively impact our children’s future earnings. Today, I wish to highlight the article pertaining to how each of us needs to focus on healthy daily habits. In order to reduce stress, try incorporating a mixture of the following into your daily routines: relax (mindfulness), journal (gratitude), exercise (including sleep and nutrition/hydration), monitor (limit your exposure to social media), and laugh! The past three years has taken a toll on most of our lives. The COVID pandemic has changed the way we must negotiate the future. To this end, Abe Lincoln once said: “The dogmas of the quiet past are inadequate to the stormy present. The occasion is piled high with difficulty, and we must rise with the occasion. As our case is new, so we must think anew, and act anew.”
