My Resident Advisor (RA), Beth, posted a new bulletin in the hallway that I felt was really helpful and I wanted to share it with everyone. I hope that you can take some of these to heart too. It's a stressful time of the year with financial aid pouring in. Just take a few of these tips and maybe they'll make a world of difference:

Health for your BODY:

• Get plenty of sleep
• Drink lots of pure water
• Eat a balanced diet with many fruits and veggies
• Exercise at least 10 minutes daily
• Take time to REST

Health for your LIFE:

• Take a look at where you are in life now and where you would like to be
• Set goals for yourself that are accomplishable, short, and specific
• Be creative and serving
• Do your best everyday and let the rest go

Health for your MIND:

• Schedule "down" time in your daily schedule
• After focused studying for 20 minutes, take a 5 minute break
• Pay attention to your thoughts and think ones that energize you
• Be intentional and aware of the habits you form... Choose good ones

Health for your RELATIONSHIPS:
