This month’s focus is on parenting. There are many parenting tips in the “Toolbox for Parents” There are also “steps to creating effective rules and consequences”. Rules and consequences can also be thought of as boundaries, which could apply to adult relationships.
The heat of the summer is beginning – relationships can become strained when the heat is on (sorry for the pun) – let’s help each by being kind and positive when experiencing troubles.
Thank you for being leaders in the workplace and for being the voice of rationality. It is important!
Bryan,

We address anxiety in this months issue. We are an anxious society. Anxiety comes in many forms, a few of them are addressed here. There are more types of anxiety then mentioned, the ones addressed are the most common types of anxiety.
The good news is that there are some very effective ways to deal with anxiety. Page 2 speaks to a few of the most effective ways to address debilitating anxiety.
We can be a good conduit to some very good ways of addressing anxiety if a co-worker comes to you for help. You all are very good at getting help when asked, or even when you notice a change in a co-workers behavior. As a team, we help a lot of people! I am grateful for each of you and the work you are doing!

We focus on drug addiction this month. Drug Addiction is defined and explored on page 1. Page 2 addresses whether drug addiction can be cured or prevented.
Much of the information is from the www.drugabuse.gov web site. This is a very good resource and I encourage you to browse the site so you are familiar with all of the information there is.

Because of Valentines Day – we are focusing on heart health. Healthy heart factors and risk factors are addressed. Let’s start some discussions around how your heart health can affect your mental health also. Our physical health has a big effect on our mental health.
The past week has seen bone chilling cold across much of the U.S – Lack of sunshine and warmth also affects mental health – we can offer hope and encourage people to take care of themselves through the winter. Sometimes a kind, encouraging word can be a simple and effective way of helping people get through difficult times.
Thank you for your service to others. I am grateful for each of you!
