Friendly February 2021

2/1/2021

We need each other more than ever right now! This month let's focus on reaching out to connect with others and doing our best to be a good friend. Our acts of kindness and connection ripple out and impact so many more people than we realize- and they also boost our own happy hormones too! In stressful times people around us may be feeling the strain, so let's try to keep calm, take time to listen and show compassion.

'Happier' January 2021

1/4/2021

How can we start this new year happier? Things have certainly not been easy over the last year, and we are still in difficult and uncertain times. The best way to try to handle our difficult emotions and experiences is by focusing on what we can control. This month, we're encouraging everyone to focus on small steps to try to boost happiness - for ourselves and others around us - to spread kindness and hopefully inspire others to do the same.

Mental Health Awareness and Resources

12/10/2020

NUAMES Parents/Guardians-

Usually, during HOPE WEEK the Hope Squad hosts a parent/student education night where we are able to provide mental health information and resources - but with the COVID-19 large group gathering restrictions, we aren't able to hold this event. However, we felt that it was important to still provide our NUAMES families with resources and mental health supports.

Davis Behavioral Health - Prevention Resources for Individuals and Families.

During the summer Davis Behavioral Health hosted an "Illumination" Event with Hank Smith and the EveryDay Strong Program, which focused on building strong families through communication and connection.

We HOPE that these resources and information will be beneficial for your family. We know this has been a difficult and challenging year and we are PROUD of our NAUMES students for doing HARD THINGS and responding with such resiliency!

'Do good' december 2020

12/1/2020

2020 has been a difficult year in so many ways. We have suffered with uncertainty, anxiety, isolation and challenges with our financial situation, health or relationships. One thing that can hold us together and help us get through is kindness. Although we can't change our situation, we can choose to respond to others (and ourselves) with kindness. And when we're kind, everything goes better. We help others, we help ourselves and we encourage others to be kinder too.

New Ways November

11/2/2020

Covid is restricting our lives, but we can find new ways to keep making progress. Trying out new things can actually boost our well-being. When we open up to new ideas, it helps us stay curious and engaged. It can also bring a sense of accomplishment and help to boost our self-confidence and resilience. There are so many ways to learn new things and this month we're encouraging everyone to find new and creative ways to overcome our frustrating situations.

optimistic october - 2020 action calendar

10/1/2020

LIFE IS FAR FROM PERFECT, BUT THERE ARE LOTS OF REASONS FOR OPTIMISM. SETTING POSITIVE GOALS FOR THE FUTURE GIVES OUR LIVES A SENSE OF DIRECTION AND PURPOSE. AND ALTHOUGH WE FACE MANY CHALLENGES THERE ARE ALSO LOTS OF REASONS TO STAY HOPEFUL. BY CONSCIOUSLY CHOOSING OUR PRIORITIES WE CAN OVERCOME ISSUES, MAKE PROGRESS, AND FOCUS ON WHAT REALLY MATTERS.

Self-Care September 2020: You can't pour from an empty cup

9/4/2020

Self-care isn't selfish, it's essential. No-one's perfect. But so often we compare our insides to other people's outsides. This month we're encouraging everyone to be kinder to themselves (as well as others), especially when things go wrong. Self-care increases our resilience and helps us get more out of life. It also helps us accept others as they are too.
