Thank you all for your hard work and dedication this year. Everyone deserves a break; stay safe and well. We'll see you in the Fall!


Things to check out over the summer

Try out a digital detox

So, as you plan your summer weeks, consider that it may be beneficial to build in some moments to remove the devices from your life, even if it's just for a short time. Maybe start with a morning or an afternoon, and build up to a whole day a little bit at a time if you find it helps you relax.
