Mental Health Wellness Tip of the Day: Find the lesson. What can each of us learn here, in big and small ways, from this crisis? What needs to change in ourselves, our homes, our communities, our nation, and our world?

Mental Health Wellness Tip of the Day: Remind yourself daily that this is temporary. It seems in the midst of this quarantine that it will never end. We will return to feeling free, safe, busy, and connected in the days ahead.

Mental Health Wellness Tip of the Day: “Chunk” your quarantine, take it moment by moment. We have no road map for this. We don’t know what this will look like in 1 day, 1 week, or 1 month from now. Take each chunk one at a time, and move through stress in pieces.

Mental Health Wellness Tip of the Day: Reach out for help—your school is here for you. Your children’s teachers and related service providers will do anything within their power to help.

Mental Health Wellness Tip of the Day: Find lightness and humor in each day. There is a lot to be worried about, and with good reason. Counterbalance this heaviness with something funny each day: cat videos on YouTube, a stand-up show on Netflix or a funny movie.
