HEALTH & WELLNESS

Young people tend to power through their classes, homework, and extracurriculars non-stop every day without ever pausing to ask themselves how they feel. Small changes to our habits around eating, sleeping, and physical activity can make a huge difference in how we feel, and cultivating these habits at a young age can lead to a much healthier life later on.
