As we begin a new year, it is a great time to pause and reflect on what boosts your mental well-being—and what you’d like to do differently to enhance it in the coming year. To make mental well-being a priority in your life in 2023 requires intention, as it can be easy to fall back into old patterns and habits. Consider reflecting on a few simple questions:
- What helps to boost my mental well-being?
- What tends to be missing in my life when I struggle with mental my well-being or feel high levels of stress or anxiety?
In light of these answers, what is one small thing I could start doing today to change this pattern in 2023—and who can I ask to support me with this?
How will you make your mental well-being a priority in 2023 and who will you ask to help you? We’d love to hear in the comments below!

The YMCA believes everyone should have access to programs that develop lifesaving skills in water. Increasing numbers of marginalized communities continue to be disproportionately affected by lack of access to programs such as Safety Around Water and Swim Lessons provided by the Y. Drowning can happen nearly anywhere with standing water and at any age. Swim lessons provide the tools needed to be confident in and around water, exercise health benefits, opportunities to bond with family and friends and a sense of accomplishment through learning new skills.

We hope you have a safe and fun Halloween. We can all help keep our kids safe on Halloween by paying even more attention while driving. Here are some tips from safekids.org: Tips for drivers: - Be especially alert and take extra time to look for kids at intersections, on medians and on curbs. Children are excited on Halloween and may move in unpredictable ways. - Slow down in residential neighborhoods. Remember that popular trick-or-treating hours are 5:30 to 9:30 p.m. - Reduce any distractions inside your car, such as talking on the phone or eating, so you can concentrate on the road and your surroundings.

Today we recognize the life of longtime YMCA supporter Karl John Amelang. Karl was involved in many civic and charitable endeavors in Houston, including helping to organize and co-found the Trotter Family YMCA (originally known as the West Family YMCA and later known as the Post Oak Family YMCA). Karl became a charter member of the Y in 1966, started as a board member in 1967, was a board member of the YMCA of Greater Houston in 1972, held several board leadership positions, and served on National YMCA committees. In 1993, Karl received the coveted honor of becoming a life member of the YMCA of Greater Houston board. Karl's family has strong connections to the Y. His parents, Karl and Olga Amelang were founding members and leaders of the Post Oak YMCA Active Older Adult Program, organized in 1978. Karl has set a legacy at the YMCA of Greater Houston by actively recruiting his nephew, Wellington "Rocky" Stevens III, who has been a board member, donor, fundraiser and advocate for the Y for nearly 40 years.
