Everyday acts of kindness:
✅Offer a compliment: Give a genuine compliment to a stranger, colleague, or friend.
✅Be a good neighbor: Help a neighbor with their groceries
✅Help someone in line: Let someone go ahead of you in a checkout line or at a busy intersection. (LOUDER for the folks on Highway 150) 🤭
✅Hold the door: Hold the door open for someone, especially if they are carrying items or a stroller.
✅Listen actively: Offer a listening ear to a friend or colleague who is having a bad day.

📦Volunteer your time to a local organization, such as a homeless shelter, animal shelter, or community center
🍎Organize a drive for food or other essential supplies
✉️Send a letter to someone to let them know you're thinking of them
🪥Create a blessings bag of essentials or comfort items for someone who needs it

🧠 Mindset Reset 💡
Replace "I have to" with "I get to". Gratitude softens stress.

Gratitude softens stress by activating the body's "rest and repair" system, which lowers stress hormones like cortisol, and by releasing "feel-good" hormones like dopamine and serotonin. This can lead to better sleep, a stronger immune system, improved mood, and increased resilience to challenges.

🫂Save this for a caregiver who might need it.
💜Caregivers are more at risk for anxiety, depression, and burnout.
💡 Watch for fatigue, irritability, isolation, or guilt.

Nearly 1 in 4 (63 million) U.S. adults are family caregivers. Being a caregiver can bring joy and purpose, but it can also lead to stress, exhaustion, and worry about mental health for both you and your loved one. This collection of caregiver mental health resources can help you protect your well-being, manage stress, and navigate the challenges of caregiving. https://mhanational.org/caregiving/

💡 Did you know: overly low fat or overly low carb diets can both have negative effects on mood and cognition. 😕

🧩 Balance tip: Aim for protein + fiber + healthy fats + some carbs each meal to stabilize blood sugar and sustain brain energy.

Don’t skip breakfast (or delay too long) — your brain needs fuel. Consider pairing protein + whole carbs + fruit or veggie.
