🧘‍♀️ Summer Wellness Check: Maintaining Mental & Physical Health

Summer is often seen as a break — but stress, burnout, and unhealthy habits can creep in. Whether you’re working, in school, or just trying to rest, here’s how to take care of your mental and physical health.

1. Build a Balanced Routine

Keep regular sleep, meals, and movement in your day. Set wake/sleep goals, eat nourishing meals, and make time to move your body — even a 15-minute walk counts.

2. Practice Screen Sanity

Limit doomscrolling and binge-watching by setting app timers or screen-free blocks in your day. Replace passive scrolling with an active habit like journaling or sketching.

3. Connect with People Who Recharge You

Summer can feel lonely if your school friends are away. Stay in touch with those who lift you up — whether it’s calls, walks, or sharing a meme.

4. Get Outside as Much as Possible

Sunlight helps your mood, sleep, and vitamin D levels. Take your reading outside, eat on the patio, or just sit in the sun for 10 minutes.

5. Reduce Summer Stress

Use breathwork apps, guided meditations, or YouTube yoga. Short mental resets reduce anxiety and increase focus — especially when juggling classes, jobs, or big decisions.

6. Get Help When You Need It

Don’t wait until things feel overwhelming. Talk to someone — a friend, therapist, or campus counselor. And if school is the stressor, we’re here to help with that too.
