Wellness Wednesday: Be Inspired

Has anyone ever inspired you to change your life in a significant way that made you healthier, happier, or more fulfilled? 

If so, you understand the difference that positive inspiration can make in a person’s life. 

Inspiration is powerful, but it isn’t easy. 

Would you like to return the favor by making a positive difference in the life of your friends, family, or classmates? If you want to be a positive influence capable of inspiring your loved ones to become better versions of themselves, read more here:

Self-Care Tip: Focus on how your actions can make a difference for others. 

Kindness Challenge: Let someone know how much your appreciate them.  

We all need someone to talk to, someone who listens, and someone who understands. Your Sweetwater High School Counselors are here for you. Click here to complete the SUHi Wellness Check-In. Your counselor will reach out to you 😀

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.

Virtual Wellness Room

Please visit our Virtual Wellness Room to take a break from your daily routine. Do some breathing exercises, stretch, or play a game. It's OK to take a time out for a "brain break".

Mental Health Awareness for Minorities (MHAM) is Seeking Student Volunteers

Mental Health Awareness for Minorities (MHAM) is a student-led 501(c)(3) non-profit organization based in the greater San Diego area dedicated to providing mental health education and resources to minority communities, including low-income communities, communities of color, and the LGBTQ+ community.

Mental Health Awareness for Minorities (MHAM) is currently seeking student volunteers, and would appreciate your help reaching out to them.

Student volunteers with MHAM receive community service hours and opportunities for leadership and growth. Our organization is currently operating virtually, presenting a unique opportunity for students to obtain community service hours during the pandemic. Any students that are passionate about mental health will find a role that interests them within MHAM’s various committees, including Education, Journalism, Finance, Resource, Communications, and Media. 

For more information about our organization and its committees, please visit our website or Instagram @mha4min linked below.

Students may also learn more at our Volunteer Interest Event on November 13, 2021, which is being held virtually at 1PM PST. During the event, students can expect to learn more about our organization and the roles of each committee, followed by a Q&A panel with our committee heads. The registration link attached here can be found in our Instagram bio.

If you’re able to share this information and the flyer attached with your students and refer us to mental health clubs or programs on campus, it would be extremely helpful.

If you have any questions, concerns, or would like to set up a virtual meeting to further discuss our proposal, please feel free to reach out to me using any of my contacts below. Thank you for your time and we look forward to hearing from you!

Wellness Wednesday: Reciprocity

Reciprocity is a mutual exchange of actions, goods, energy, time, emotion, etc. between two people.

Reciprocity is similar to a game of tennis or ping pong. There’s a rhythm or a flow of a back and forth exchange. 

When someone reciprocates our efforts, it can leave us feeling validated in our choices and friendship, energized to keep going in this friendship or relationship and give more, and leaves us with this overall sense that we are valued and appreciated.

What actions and energy are you sharing with the people you interact with every day? Are you building others up? Are you putting the "Golden Rule" into action and treating others the way you want to be treated?

Self-Care Tip: Focus on the good. Remember that tough times are inevitable, but they will also inevitably end. The key is to focus on the good, and you’ll get there eventually.

 Kindness Challenge: Thank someone you are grateful for and tell them why. 

We all need someone to talk to, someone who listens, and someone who understands. Your Sweetwater High School Counselors are here for you. Click here to complete the SUHi Wellness Check-In. Your counselor will reach out to you 😀
