JFS Orlando's Weekly Wellness Corner

It's finally here - back-to-school time! It can be stressful to get back into the routine of things for both parents and children. Try making the transition back to school a little easier by reducing common stressors. Do those chores really need to be done or can it wait until after they start school? Order in from your favorite restaurant and skip the dishes.

Remember that the transition to a new grade can be just as stressful for kids as it is for you. Give yourselves a few days to adjust back to the routine and most importantly, keep the line of communication open. Kindness and compassion can go a long way to help ease the transition back to the school routine for your entire home.

Jumping back into the swing of things can seem overwhelming, but we are here to help. JFS counselors are available for you and your family to help with life's transitions or to build a custom wellness plan just for you. Call 407-644-7671 or visit JFSorlando.org/counseling to request a counseling appointment. To learn more about JFS Orlando's FAMILY of services, visit JFSorlando.org or call 407-644-7593.
