Sleep! Hope you changed your clock last night! Look here for ways to help your teen get more sleep. Help your students create a good window (# of hours of sleep) by supporting a healthy schedule in which they have a balance of exercise, down time, nourishing food and happy connection.
One Shot in Each Arm! Protect your student against illness and missing school (and protect your community as well)! Make their appointments to get both the flu shot and their next Covid booster (now giving the new bivalent version effective against variants). Many pediatrician’s offices and most pharmacies have them available.
What I’m Reading: Dopamine Nation: Finding Balance in the Age of Indulgence and I’m listening to Hooked on Audible. They have very connected themes.
Recipe: I made THESE MUFFINS last week (I used a can of pureed pumpkin instead of the applesauce and water). Great to have on hand for your kids to grab for breakfast when they’re heading out of the house in the morning.
Please see my website for more information on medications, health issues, forms, etc. Does your child have an EPIPEN? Hopefully you have let me know. HERE is some interesting information about Benadryl vs. Epinephrine.
