Halloween is when we choose to face our fears… Are you scared of opening the can of worms? 🪱
“In the emotionally healthy school, there’s nothing to fear within the can & children know they don’t carry burdens alone.” - Mary Meredith

Being outdoors releases dopamine, increases oxytocin & lowers cortisol; the body’s stress hormone. How do you fit in your daily 20 minutes?
