On behalf of the PIN staff, I would like to wish you and your family a very happy and healthy holiday season! Although the hustle and bustle can make life feel hectic, remember this is the season to connect with family and friends and spend time together.
Recently the PIN and DMH staff came together to learn ways to handle stress. A representative from the
Benson-Henry Institute for Mind Body Medicine demonstrated breathing and meditation techniques that help to manage stress.
This video by
Dr. Andrew Weil demonstrates the "4-7-8 Breathing Technique." Give it a try next time you are feeling stressed.
As always, the Parent Information Network is here for you during the holidays and all through the year. We can be reached at 508-947-8779 or
pin@bamsi.org.
