Wellness Wednesday: Time for Playcation!
Happy
Wellness Wednesday from Santa, Mrs. Claus, and the reindeer!
We
hope you find rest and relaxation during the winter break. Few people talk
about having a playcation, but it's a great idea: stay home, but make it fun!
The difference between a staycation and a playcation is that staycations tend
to focus more on resting and relaxing, while playcations are for—you guessed
it—fun!
With
the hard work and stressful routines that characterize many people's
lifestyles, it's important to have some fun (like Billy Crystal did to 'get his
smile back' in the classic movie City Slickers) as a way to recharge your
batteries and be sure you're enjoying life. You can devote several days to
taking a playcation, or just be sure you pepper in some fun on a regular basis.
Self Care Tip:
As
we prepare for 2020, it’s time to set some goals. Makes goals
achievable, while also allowing for normal “emergencies” at work that might
take up your time.
Kindness Challenge:
Find a local
cause to volunteer your time this holiday season. You can find great ideas here.

Wellness Wednesday: Hustle and Help #WellnessWednesday #BeWellRedDevils
Happy Wellness Wednesday!
We’re in the home stretch of the semester. It’s time to hustle and get things done. The end of the year/semester can get overwhelming. Remember, it’s OK to ask for help if you need it. We all need a helping hand at times.
Self-Care Tip: Clean up your area (bedroom, office, desk). Many people find a clean and neat work area to be cathartic.
Kindness Challenge:
Because our campus needs some extra TLC, pick up 5 pieces of trash on your way to class after NB and lunch.
Affective Statement:
I am so pleased to see/hear…
We invite you to encourage students to visit our Wellness Room in the counseling center room in office 141 if they need to de-stress and decompress. Please have students check in with a counselor before using the Wellness Room. Typically, we have students use the Wellness Room for no longer than 15 minutes at a time to report back to class ASAP.
Because YELLOW stands for happiness, positivity, energy, optimism, and joy, we are asking for our campus community to wear YELLOW on Wednesdays to help promote our Wellness Wednesday efforts.
To spread the good news of our wellness efforts, please use the hashtag #BeWellRedDevils in sharing your Wellness Wednesday activities.

#WellnessWednesday: Gratitude #BeWellRedDevils
Happy
Wellness Wednesday Red Devils!
November
kicks off the holiday season with high expectations for a cozy and festive time
of year. However, for many this time of year is tinged with sadness, anxiety,
or depression. Certainly, major depression or a severe anxiety disorder
benefits most from professional help. But what about those who just feel lost
or overwhelmed or down at this time of year? Research (and common sense)
suggests that one aspect of the Thanksgiving season can actually lift the
spirits, and it's built right into the holiday — expressing gratitude.

You Don’t Have to Go Through This Alone - College Application Season is Here!
Thanks Joram for the awesome article! We are always glad to help you all achieve your goals!

You Don’t Have to Go Through This Alone
Joram Villasenor, StaffWriter |

Sweetwater counselors have opened the College Application Workshops for the entire school month of November in the Counseling Center so students who have started or need to start working on their college apps can have their applications submitted before Nov 30th (the deadline for all UC and CSU schools).
We are already in the 5th day of November (A.K.A the most stressful month for seniors in the US), and this means that the countdown to submit your college applications has been started and the clock has begun ticking, every day louder. Luckily for us, senior devils, we can count on a group of passionate, committed, and caring counselors who have put aside all their plans so they can be available for any senior who might be struggling—or just want a space to work in peace—in their College apps.
We are already in the 5th day of November (A.K.A the most stressful month for seniors in the US), and this means that the countdown to submit your college applications has been started and the clock has begun ticking, every day louder. Luckily for us, senior devils, we can count on a group of passionate, committed, and caring counselors who have put aside all their plans so they can be available for any senior who might be struggling—or just want a space to work in peace—in their College apps.
From November 5th through the last day before thanksgiving break, there will be College Application Workshops every week from Tuesday through Thursday in the Counseling Center. Every day of the week the space will be open for you to work on your applications before school, during nutrition break, during lunch or afterschool and every day of the workshop a different group of counselors will stay afterschool to help you get all your stuff done. They count with everything you need so you don’t have to worry about anything but putting in information to the computer and writing about how awesome you are.
Student xxx went to the workshop on the 4th and she shared: “It is unbelievable how much you can advance on your college apps when you have someone there that knows how to help and really cares about guiding you through this stressful process.” Student xxx also said: “I came here with my CSU application just started and I stayed during lunch and afterschool and now I am completely done with it. This stressful process passed by as if it was nothing thanks to Mr. Garcia's help.” And lastly, Senior xxx stated: “Every time I would open my UC application at home, I would get really stressed because I have so many questions and I didn’t know where to go. Ms. Chavez made all this stressful process feel like the easiest thing ever. I think everyone who is stressing about college apps really needs to come to this workshop, it is incredible how much help one can get in just one day.”
You have read the advice of the experienced students, who tell you that you really should come if you have need help on your applications. SUHI counselors, as always, will be ready to help you. If you have any question, if you need a letter of recommendation, if you need to start or finish your application, just have in mind that whatever it is that you need, a counselor will be more than happy to help you. So, if you are getting stressed about college apps, or even if you are not, it will be worth it to give it a try to the College Application Workshops. Just remember that you don’t have to go through this alone.

Every October, individuals
from across the nation unite in a campaign to keep youth safe from bullying.
Come visit the Peer Mediators in front of the band room at lunch to share some
anti-bullying messages and goodies! Let’s spread kindness!
More info here:
It’s
certainly easier to make assumptions about people than it is to spend time
getting to know someone. We wanted to put assumptions to the test to see what
we're missing out on because we're so busy assuming we already "know"
a person. Join us as we discover why you should never judge a book by it’s
cover in our series, Reverse Assumptions. We are all conditioned with certain
biases. In this experiment, we challenged these biases by asking people to make
assumptions about their partner's appearance without ever actually seeing their
partner.
When they flipped around to finally face each other, they were shocked by how wrong they were:
