Here are a few ways to manage back-to-school stress:
📅 Set realistic routines: don’t overbook yourself; just do what’s reasonable
🚶‍♀️ Practice mindful movement: even a quick walk around the block with the kids can help
🎒 Prepare ahead: lay out clothes, lunches, and backpacks the night before
💬 Talk about your feelings: share your worries with friends and family you can count on
At Mental Wellness Center, we’re here to help parents and families navigate these transitions. Find support athttps://mentalwellnesscenter.org/ or call 805.884.8440.

Back to school season can bring about excitement–and anxiety too. Both are perfectly normal. 💛

Here are some quick wellness reminders to help ease the transition:
📅 Plan, don’t cram – A little organization now saves a lot of stress later.
🌱 Take Breaks – Step outside, stretch, or just breathe for a minute.
🤝 Stay Connected – Talk to friends, join a club, or reach out when you feel off.
🛌 Prioritize Sleep – Sleep is brain fuel. No one thrives on fumes.
🌟Remember, you don’t have to do it all. You just have to do your best.
