  • Decreasing stress in families

    This can be a stressful and uncertain time for parents, which can sometimes accidentally come out on our kids.  Most of all, parents, please know that you are not expected to be some kind of perfect wonderwoman or superman.  We're all doing the best we can in a difficult situation.  We're going to make mistakes and that's okay, and perhaps we'll get overwhelmed at times (especially with technology challenges and with working from home while also caring for your children).  If you are an extrovert, spending time with people is relaxing and rejuvenating, so social distancing can be especiallly difficult for you.  Please take the time to take care of yourselves, which will help in the long run with caring for your children. 

    Take a deep breath.  Breath deeply in while counting in your head to 6, hold for 3, and breath out for 6.  Do this until you feel your heart beat rate slow down.

    Admit you're angry.  Label it and say it outloud.  Just saying it can relieve the energy.

    Get fresh air and sunlight.  Open a window or sit on your front porch.  Greet people walking by.

    Release the anxiety or anger with activity:  stretch, meditate, run or jump in place.

    Listen to music you enjoy.  It really does calm the soul.

    Call or facetime a friend or loved one to stay connected.

    Take time for yourself.  Even if it is only 5 minutes of quiet time.

    Ask for help.

    Know the school counselor and SAC are both here for you, send an email or call. Attached are contacts for hotlines.  There are also local counseling resources found to the left under "local services".
