Congratulations to the GEM girls at @bgc_of_bartow – Adairsville and Cartersville Units for completing the Muddy Princess 5k obstacle course! The team of 52 girls and volunteers worked together to reach the finish line. They crawled, waded, balanced, swung, and climbed their way through the muddy course. The girls showed great sportsmanship and showered each other with words of encouragement. The event focused on having fun, being inclusive, and working together! The girls had an amazing time and made lots of memories! β‘οΈππͺπ½

βI would have to say this event really showed them that there`s nothing they can`t do as long as they have will to succeed. They all really stepped up and understood what it means to be a GEM! There`s no words that can come close to describe how proud I am of our girls! πβ – Katie Roberts, GEM Adult Facilitator, Boys & Girls Clubs of Bartow County, Adairsville Unit

Self-care is anything you do to take care of yourself so you can stay physically, mentally, and emotionally well. The benefits of regular self-care have been linked to positive health outcomes such as reduced stress, improved immune system, increased productivity, fostering resilience, living longer, and becoming better equipped to manage stress.
Here are a few ways to incorporate self-care into your regular routine:
β Positive self-talk
β Give yourself permission to take a pause
β Plan time to meet up with friends
β Talk to a friend or family member
