SAUSD FACE Newsletter: October 2, 2020
Dear FACE Partners,
As we continue our journey together towards the common goal of the success of our students and families, I turn my attention to the feeling of wellness.
Wellness is often confused with other terms such as health, well-being and happiness. While there are commonalities amongst the terms, wellness is being aware of the choices that lead toward an outcome of health, well-being and living a fulfilled life. Wellness matters. It matters because everything we do and every emotion we feel relates to our well-being. Our well-being directly affects our actions and emotions. It is an ongoing cycle.
I share with you all two ways on how I began my journey to wellness and living fully:
Self-Reflection
- Build time into your life that provides the opportunity to be by yourself alone. This will help you grow your understanding of who you are what your values are and why you think and act the way you do.
Connect with a Community
- No matter where you are, know that you are not alone. Find others that are also on the same journey as you, it is an important part of growth. I truly believe that we grow best in community when we share and learn from others.
Although we all have our own priorities, approaches and aspirations including our own views of what it means to live life fully and well I thank those individuals who I have encountered throughout my journey who taught me the skills to self-reflect and connect with the community of educators, students and families of SAUSD.
Sincerely,
Rosana Martinez, SAUSD Family and Community Engagement Specialist
