Wellness Wednesday: Live with Gratitude

Happy Wellness Wednesday Red Devils!

Why Living a Life of Gratitude Can Make You Happy?

Just a few reasons: Because it reminds you of the positive things in your life. It makes you happy about the people in your life, whether they're loved ones or just a stranger you met who was kind to you in some ways. Gratitude helps us get rid of toxic emotions by anchoring us in everything that's positive in our lives.

Whatever your views and current circumstances, we can all agree the U.S. presidential election brings emotions on top of the already intense and complex circumstances many of us are in right now. Much is out of our control—but not all.

Here are a few tips for regaining a personal sense of empowerment over what is in our realm of influence:

Self-Care Tip:
You deserve time to yourself. Exercise, read, meditate, binge watch - “me time” is a priority.


Kindness Challenge:
Be encouraging. Tell others they did a good job, that you like their smile, that you appreciate their efforts, or that you believe they can do it.


Virtual Wellness Room
Please visit our Virtual Wellness Room to take a break from your online classes. Do some breathing exercises, stretch, or play a game. It's OK to take a time out in the middle of the day for a "brain break".

Have a great day! #BeWellRedDevils
