H.a.l.t. coping skill and app of the week

There is a basic acronym everyone can learn as a way of managing their mental health when emotions become too overwhelming.  When your brain is working overtime and you are becoming anxious or frustrated, use the HALT method to mindfully be checking your basic needs. 

Hungry: This could be either a physical or an emotional need. Are you eating often enough and eating the right things?  Are you “hungry” for an emotional need?⁠

Angry: Although anger is a healthy and normal emotion to experience, it’s important to understand what’s causing it so you can properly express it.⁠

Loneliness: You can still feel lonely while surrounded by large numbers of people. Instead of making a bad decision because you’re lonely, reach out to someone.⁠

Tired: Operating on low energy affects your ability to think and cope. Are you giving yourself enough time to rest and recharge?⁠ 

APP of the WEEK:  Stop, Breathe & Think
For Apple and Android.  Check in with how you're feeling, and try short activities tuned to your emotions.  Mrs. Grotzky's (your school social worker) new personal fav.  Be well, be safe and be kind, NUAMES Nighthawks.
