Wellness Wednesday: Focus on What you CAN Control
Happy Wellness Wednesday Red Devils!
Today, we are reminded to focus on what we can control. Letting go of the concept that you can control and suppress difficult thoughts and feelings gives you more energy to pay attention to them. This is something we can control.
It is how we respond to our thoughts and feelings which we do have agency over. This involves taking the time to be mindful of how our thoughts and feelings are influencing us and take steps to alter this track.
Kindness Challenge: Connect with someone near you. Share a smile. Start a chat.
The Sweetwater High Counseling Team would like to say thank you all for your continued support and collaboration. It is our pleasure to work with the SUHi community. Please view our National School Counseling messages here.
Because YOU play the most important role at our school in keeping our campus safe, don't forget if you see something, say something.
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.
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 😀
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".
