Dear friends,

I hope this winter issue finds you well and safe, and that the information and resources below are helpful.

With COVID-19, this year’s holiday season may be a bit different as people wrestle with travel and what is right for themselves and their families. Even in a normal cold and flu season, there will always be things we cannot control that can trigger stress and anxiety, which can make us more susceptible to illness. Focus instead on the many positive actions we can take to keep us healthy and happy to protect ourselves and those we love.

Wishing you health and wellness,

Deirdre
