Hello, Pearl Team.
Hopefully you have had a chance to be out enjoying the nicer weather and you are making plans for how you plan to spend the next few warm months in ways that bring you happiness.
We have much to observe and reflect on during the month of June. Juneteenth, LGBTQ Pride Month, Caribbean American Heritage Month, Father’s Day, and Eid al-Adha. There are many events planned around our country and I hope you are able to find time to attend one or honor the day/month in a way that makes you feel fulfilled. We talk a lot in our newsletters about ways to minimize stress and maximize mental health and one of those ways is spending time with those you love involved in something that is close to your heart. Whether it is a service of remembrance or a celebration, I hope it brings you peace.
I also hope that you are able to get outside more now that the weather is nicer and spend time in the fresh air, doing something that makes you happy. Do you enjoy gardening? Kayaking? Fishing? Hiking? Walking? Whatever it is that you do to find peace, try to do it as often as possible. I often find myself losing track of time while I am gardening because I enjoy it so much. There is something so therapeutic to me about cultivating my garden and having my hands in the earth. Is there anything you do that you enjoy so much you lose track of time? Perhaps you can find ways to incorporate more of that into your summer routine.
Welcome to Summer, Pearl Team!
Sincerely,
Merry Korn, MSW
CEO
