Is the COVID-19 vaccine safe for me?
We all want protection from the COVID-19 virus, but some may feel a little uneasy about getting a vaccine. You might have concerns about allergic reactions or your health conditions, and you just want to know if the vaccine is safe. Speak with your health care provider about any concerns before getting a vaccine.
There are two vaccines that can protect you from COVID-19, and everyone will be able to get one. It will just take some time to get there. Learn more about the COVID-19 vaccines and common side effects in this blog post from the Washington State Department of Health.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has more information about ensuring COVID-19 vaccine safety in the U.S. CDC recommends you get a COVID-19 vaccine as soon as you are eligible.
Mindfulness for Parents
Being a parent/caregiver is amazing and also can be extremely stressful, especially when combined with the many demands on our shoulders each day, our feelings about the past, and our worries about the future. Mindfulness is one set of tools and practices that enable us to cope with stress, respond with compassion, and stay connected to our kids and our partners.
