SELF-CARE DURING STRESSFUL TIMES - for youth AND adults!

• Exercise. Go for a walk outside - bundle up if you have to.

• Have a dance party with your family!

• Listen to music - or make music if that’s your jam.

• Color. Even adults can color.

• Call a friend and catch up!

• Get good rest! Keep a solid routine, even with school and work changes.

• Drink lots of water!

• If you feel worried or stressed talk to someone about your feelings. Don’t keep it bottled up. 

  • You can also write about your feelings! Or use art to express feelings too.
