Let's Be Well Together, OWN!

Music helps us activate our brain, build new neuro-connections and soothe our senses. Join Be Well as we learn about all the ways music benefits our brains and practice channeling the healing power of music by creating our own feel-good playlist filled with meaningful music!

Our well-being is directly impacted by our felt sense of belonging. Each one of us deserves to feel supported, valued and seen across our different environments, including work, home and in our communities. When we create spaces of inclusion and belonging it not only celebrates our uniqueness, it also paves the way for healthier, more resilient communities. Let's honor what makes us uniquely who we are by intentionally learning more about each other. Join us for a Be Well Experience where we come together to celebrate our individuality and forge connections that illuminate our common humanity.

We live in a world that is constantly changing and impacting our mental and physical well-being. The challenges we encounter in life can leave us feeling like we don’t know “Where to Start.” Be Well is here to remind us that there is hope and we can start together! Inspired by Where to Start 2024 MHA May Toolkit (mhanational.org) you’re invited to join this Be Well Experience where we will connect, practice and support our mental well-being in community! Mental Health America’s 2024 Mental Health Month Toolkit.

Engaging in play activities not only allows us to unwind and have fun, but it also helps to reduce stress levels, boost creativity, and enhance productivity. By taking a break from our daily routine to indulge in our favorite playful activities, we give our minds a chance to reset and recharge. Join us for this Be Well Experience, a “Stress Recess” and opportunity to nurture our brain health by identifying our unique play personalities and engaging in the power of play

Building quality connections greatly impacts our well-being. Our relationships can include those with our families, friends, communities, our purpose and with ourselves! When we intentionally build on these connections, we can reduce feelings of loneliness and isolation while improving our resilience. Our connections make us stronger, and together, we can face all that life brings our way. Join us for this Be Well Experience, focused on giving your heart a warm hug through quality connection!

Often times, a new year brings on the pressure of finding "a new you." We like you just the way you are! What if we set an intention for the new year instead of only setting goals? We can be intentional about being more present, expressing gratitude, harnessing creativity, finding balance, embracing change, experiencing growth, letting go of control, or honoring limits. Let's embrace arriving just as we are, with an intention rooted in hope. Join us for this Be Well Experience where we will hold space to set intention and identify "a word of the year."

Practicing radical rest is all about giving ourselves permission to slow down and recharge as we prepare for the winter months and holidays ahead. By prioritizing our own well-being, we can be better equipped to navigate whatever realities this season brings. Join this Be Well Experience as we prioritize restoration amidst the hustle and bustle of a busy end to the year.

Summer is a time to ignite your internal spark. As the weather continues to heat up, let’s also turn up the heat on our summer self-care journey! Watch this Be Well Experience focused on intentionally leaning into summertime wellness activities and practices.

"People are at the center of it all" means all people, all voices, all beliefs, and all identities are seen, known, and valued for who they uniquely are. You are not merely one of millions. Instead, you are one in a million, uniquely and beautifully you, and deserve to be celebrated. This Be Well Experience is rooted in the importance of belonging and its impacts on brain health.

When it comes to our brain health, there are many environmental factors that influence our overall wellbeing. This Be Well Experience, inspired by Mental Health America's 2023 Mental Health Month Toolkit, encourages us to "look around and look within" at where we live, where we work/learn, and where we gather to establish healthy habits and improve our wellbeing within.

Spring is a time to reset, renew and plant intentions for what we want to see grow. This Be Well Experience helps us plan our "spring forward" both as individuals and as the future of Anderson Engineering blossoms.

"It's the most wonderful time of the year…" but is it? How are you this season? We hope it's joy-filled, and based on our history, we also know to anticipate stress and overwhelm this time of year. What we know to do is to lean and care for ourselves rather than avoid and neglect our brain health. Let's Be Well Together to find HOPE this holiday season.

We have learned to develop a plan for emergencies related to physical crises and natural disasters. Our mental health deserves this same preparation. A Be Well Plan outlines what we do when we are in a brain health crisis.
