Thinking of going "soberish" in the new year? It's all about moderation, mindfulness, and setting boundaries that work for you. Start by reflecting on why you want to drink less—better health, more focus, or even saving money.

"Brainrot" is slang for an obsessive focus on a topic, trend, or fandom, often fueled by endless online content. Teens are particularly vulnerable due to developing brains and social media algorithms designed to keep them hooked.

Social media can take a toll on our mental health, but we can turn it around. 👉 For Teens: Pay attention to when an interest becomes an unhealthy fixation. Take regular breaks, set screen time limits, and mix online time with hobbies like sports, art, or family activities.

Some things in life are simply beyond our control—like layoffs. The key to navigating uncertainty is focusing on what you can control and letting go of the rest. If there’s even a 1% chance of a layoff, take steps to prepare: update your resume, network, and budget wisely.

Ultraprocessed foods, or UPFs, have become a staple in the American diet, making up nearly 70% of the calories consumed by children and teens. These convenience foods are linked to serious health concerns like increased risk of depression and anxiety.
