A Little Time...Just for You

Over the last few weeks many have said that the year seemed to go very quickly while others felt it dragged on forever. Despite these differences, all agree that it is time for a well-deserved break. Summer vacation is a time for you to do those things which reenergize you and give you joy, the things that you have so little time to do during your busy work schedule. Whether you have plans for travel across the country, across the world, or just some precious time to yourself, make the most of it. An important part of well-being is taking care of yourself.

This is the final edition of the Newsletter for the current year. Although the team will be taking a respite as well, we are always looking for ideas as to how to better serve our readers, so if you have suggestions over the summer months, please pass them along.
Happy Summer!
