Posted @withregram • @outforsafeschools We might not be wearing our badges in schools right now, but our fight for justice never stopped. This fight has always been intersectional. Safe schools for LGBTQ students are only safe if Black students are safe too.
Black lives matter at school.
Black Trans lives matter.
Black Queer lives matter.

It is the final day of National Prevention Week, and we hope that the knowledge shared here at @cancoalitionla and @outforsafeschools stays with you.

Carry the wisdom that you learned this week and share it with your students, friends, and family! Here is our final post.

Did you know that healthy and positive SELF-AFFIRMATIONS can decrease stress, increase your sense of well-being, advance your academic performance and allow you to be more open to behavioral change? When you verbalize, believe, and act on self-affirmation, you uphold your SELF-WORTH and broaden your view of your worthy self.

In addition to expressing the above-self affirmation, why not try them in a POWER-POSE? Researcher Amy Cuddy’s famous TED-Talk suggests that how we physically hold and present our bodies can have a positive impact on our minds. By standing in a POWERFUL pose, like WONDER WOMAN or SUPERMAN, we can feel more powerful and confident!

Let’s end this beautiful week with SELF-AFFIRMATIONS AND POWER-POSES. Ready for Power Hour? 3, 2, 1 . . . GO!

Happy National Prevention Week! We wanted to let

Happy National Prevention Week!
We wanted to let you all know that the health of your lungs is essential during this global pandemic. Because Covid-19 is a respiratory virus, taking extra care of our lungs is a great way to start keeping ourselves healthy. We can show our lungs some love by eating healthy, staying hydrated, and taking care of what we put into our bodies. There are tons of small things we can work into our routines to help our lungs such as: ..........................................................................
- Keeping air purifying plants in your room to filter out indoor toxins (a favorite low maintenance one of ours is Pothos!) ......................................................................
- Drinking respiratory tea (licorice, eucalyptus, peppermint, and green tea) ..........................................................................
- Keeping a nutritious diet filled with cruciferous veggies and antioxidants, which are great for lung function (these include: broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, apples, blueberries, and cranberries) ................................................................
- Making a routine of exercising to increase lung capacity
