As the seasons change, many of us find ourselves needing to adjust our routines once again. Do you feel tension in your shoulders at the thought of added commitments as one-year ends, and a new one is about to begin?
While not everyone reacts the same way to seasonal shifts, most can relate to how daylight, temperature, and lifestyle changes impact our overall wellbeing. This transitional time can bring added stress and tension as we balance year-end commitments with the challenges of an evolving world.
Rather than reverting to old habits, it's time to adopt new practices that prioritize your health and the wellbeing of those around you, with a strong emphasis on mental wellness. The changing seasons model and invite us to adapt purposefully, and we can choose to do the same.
Join the National Council for Mental Wellbeing and NACo for an engaging webinar tailored specifically for U.S. county leaders and employees. Together, we’ll explore the challenges and opportunities that this season presents, equipping you with tools and strategies to enhance personal and organizational wellbeing within U.S. counties. This session is designed for county decision-makers, HR professionals, and all county workers seeking effective ways to relax, recharge, and thrive through the seasons of change.
