Take a Paws: Why Tiny Timeouts Matter in Vet Med! ⏳

Hey Vet Med furrriends! 🩺

In the whirlwind of vet life – racing between patients, paperwork, and emergencies…when was the last time you paused just for you? In our PAVING the Path to Wellness Program, Dr. Beth Frates reminds us that even mini-breaks can work magic on your mind and mood! 😸

How to Take Micro-Timeouts in Your Day:

1. Stretch Like a Cat 🐈‍⬛ Pause for a 2-minute stretch between appointments. Your back (and brain) will purr with relief.
2. Nature Nibbles 🌤️ Step outside, feel the sun (or snow ❄️), and breeeeeathe…Even 5 minutes in fresh air can help reset your nervous system!
3. Tech Timeout 📵 Silence your phone, close the laptop, and savor your lunch – mindfully, bite by delicious bite!

Remember: little pawses = big energy wins! 🐾
