Danielle Speciale • February 17, 2022

We’ve all been there. Your work day is going well and then *BAM* … you’re suddenly flooded with phone calls and emails and what seems to be never-ending tasks. Now you’re feeling stressed, overwhelmed and you don’t know where to begin, or how to begin at all. It happens to everyone, and when you are feeling overwhelmed at work you aren’t able to perform at your best. We want to give you tips on how you can combat the feeling of stress and help you get back on track. These tips can be done whether you are in an office, or if you work remotely. 


Tip 1: Make a list of your tasks


Write down everything that you need to get done. From that list, you can then decide what is of high importance and what can be done at a later point in time. Set dates for yourself of when you would like to get each task completed by, and check them off when you have finished the task. This will help you to stay organized, and staying organized means staying stress-free. 


Tip 2: Just breathe!!


Sometimes, all we need to do is take a few deep breaths to clear our mind. Try the 4 7 8 breathing technique. Here is how to do it - Close your lips and inhale through your nose for a count of four. Then, hold your breath for seven seconds. Lastly, exhale through your mouth for a count of eight. Do this as many times as you need. By breathing slower and more deeply, you will signal your nervous system to calm down. 


Tip 3: Step outside for some fresh air


Breathing in fresh air can help replenish your body with serotonin, which will help to boost your mood. Increased serotonin will promote happiness and will make you more relaxed, which is why you should take some time every now and then to get some fresh air. Plus, if you are indoors all day long, taking some time to be outside will be good for your well-being. 


These simple tricks can go a long way when you need them most. The next time you are feeling stressed at work, remember that it’s not the end of the world, and most importantly, do your best!

September on Long Island: Celebrating National Days and Local Events September is a special time on Long Island, where the last whispers of summer blend with the early hints of fall. It’s a month filled with opportunities for fun, community, and celebration. As we transition into autumn, it’s the perfect time for businesses to engage with their audiences by tapping into both national days and local events. Here’s a look at some of September’s highlights and how your brand can make the most of them. 1. National Self-Care Awareness Month (September) With the hustle and bustle of life, especially as kids head back to school and the holiday season approaches, self-care is more important than ever. September is National Self-Care Awareness Month, a perfect opportunity for brands to promote wellness. Whether you’re in the beauty, wellness, or health industry, this is the time to share tips, products, and services that encourage your audience to take time for themselves. On Long Island, this could also tie into local spa days, wellness retreats, or even quiet walks through the beautiful parks like Caleb Smith State Park Preserve. You can create content around local self-care spots or partner with nearby wellness centers for promotions. 2. Long Island’s Fall Festivals September on Long Island is synonymous with vibrant fairs and festivals that celebrate the changing seasons. The Long Island Garlic Festival at Garden of Eve Organic Farm in Riverhead is a favorite, offering a unique mix of garlicky goodness, local vendors, and family fun. The Long Island Fair at Old Bethpage Village Restoration is another must-visit, showcasing the region’s agricultural heritage with traditional games, crafts, and delicious fair food. These events provide a fantastic opportunity for businesses to get involved. Whether it’s through sponsorships, setting up a booth, or simply creating content around these local traditions, connecting your brand to these beloved events can boost your visibility and community engagement. 3. National Grandparents Day (September 8) Grandparents are the pillars of many families, and this day is dedicated to honoring them. If your brand has a family-oriented focus, consider creating a campaign that celebrates grandparents. Whether it’s through heartwarming stories, discounts, or special events, there’s a lot you can do to show appreciation. Why not encourage your followers to take their grandparents to one of Long Island’s picturesque spots? A day out in places like the Bayard Cutting Arboretum or a stroll along the Port Jefferson Harbor would make for perfect content and a special experience for families. September is a month brimming with opportunities, both nationally and locally, to engage with your audience. From celebrating self-care to diving into Long Island’s rich cultural events, there’s no shortage of ways to connect with your community and make a lasting impact.
