This week is Community! Its not typically an area we evaluate when we think of our overall wellness. It involves the sense of engagement we have with the area in which we live...and I believe where you work as well. Community is a place we should feel safe and welcomed... I'll give you a great example of how we can create community...
I have a favorite restaurant, walking distance from where I work. (I eat here at least once a week) The other day I was there...on a Saturday, I usually go on Wednesdays. The guy that usually clearing off tables came over to my table to clear it and said to me..."you are becoming a regular here...your coming on Saturdays now too" and smiled. I felt noticed, included and appreciated...that is community. This could just be good business too...but don't we want others feeling wanted and safe in the areas we work and life. When you notice someone you see a lot (or maybe even care about)...acknowledge them... it made me so happy to know I am noticed and welcomed.
Have a great Tuesday!
