Unity: This month our STARS discuss Unity. During this vulnerable time in our nation due to the political climate, it is of upmost importance that we look for ways to unite. Our STARS are learning that unity fosters a sense of belonging and increases well-being for all.

  Holiday Tips:
    
 
 
 

1. Spend what you can afford...and stop worrying about it

Financial worries are a common holiday stressor, and parents may feel particularly pressured to overspend: They want to make their children happy.

But it's a mistake to think our kids need expensive gifts to enjoy the holidays. Moreover, kids are perfectly capable of appreciating the social joys of the season.

2. Make time for inspirational activities

Pursue activities that will inspire you and your family, connect you with the important people in your life, and motivate you to learn and grow. Does music feed your soul? Make time for it. Do family nature walks lift your spirits? Fit some in.

3. Change your brain chemistry with exercise, humor, and positive thinking

Immersing yourself in a pleasant form of exercise causes your body to release endorphins, natural feel-good hormones that block pain and boost your mood.

Exercise can also lower skyrocketing stress hormone levels, and clear your mind of negative thoughts.

By reflecting on the good things, we can help ourselves bounce back - and become more patient, cheerful, resilient parents.
