As Spring Break comes to an end, we would like to check in with our students, staff, and their families.
For most of you, we know this was a much-anticipated break, but for others, Spring Break could have been stressful, lonely and full of frustration.
If you or a loved one experienced difficult emotions this last week as you slowed down during Spring Break, you're not alone. Here is a video (https://vimeo.com/586518580/8d3375132b) on how to access support through an anonymous Care Match website (https://caresolace.com/site/churchillcsd). You can also save these resources in case you need help at any time: https://bit.ly/ChurchillCSDMentalHealthResources
Spring Break is usually associated with itineraries, socializing and traveling — which can wear you out. As the break comes to a close, maybe what you need is to slow down and decompress by:
Limiting screen time. Try leaving your phone in the car when you meet a friend for lunch so you can give them your full attention. A small digital detox can pay off big.
Cleaning out your social media accounts. You may have some social media clutter. Spend some time purging what you no longer find valuable.
Resting. One word: naps!
Getting fresh air. There's something cleansing about being outside, even in the rain or snow.
Exercising. If you can combine exercise with fresh air, all the better.
Organizing. As you organize closets and drawers, find things to sell, donate, trade with a friend, or throw away. A break is a perfect time to purge physical clutter, too.
