Tips for staying healthy
Get a flu shot
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends a yearly flu vaccine for every-
one 6 months of age and older. Flu vaccines are updated each year to best protect against
new strains of the flu virus.
Reduce the spread
To help reduce the spread of the flu, colds, and other viruses, including COVID-19, you
should:
· Wash your hands frequently. It is the best way to protect yourself from catching illnesses.
· Wipe down surfaces around you with a sanitizing cleaner.
· Keep a distance from those who are sick.
· Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth.
· Stay hydrated, so you can flush toxins out of your system.
· Get enough sleep to keep your immune system strong.
Make nutri"ous choices
Eating a diet full of vegetables, fruits, lean protein, and whole grains can also help you stay
healthy during the colder months. Consider treats that will satisfy cravings but have less fat
and added sugar, and also keep an eye on portion size.
Stay ac"ve
Shorter days and colder weather may lead you to exercise less. But even moderate exercise,
like a brisk walk, raking leaves, or climbing stairs, can help. Physical activity can help you
maintain or lose weight, reduce anxiety, lower blood pressure, and improve your quality of
sleep.

10Tips to Help with Seasonal Affective Disorder
(SAD)
If you start feeling down during this time of year, you are not alone. Also known as the “winter
blues,” Seasonal Affective Disorder or SAD affects millions of people during the winter months in the
northern hemisphere. This year may be especially difficult for people with SAD when added to the social
isolation of COVID-19.
According to the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) is
not considered as a separate disorder but is a type of depression that has a recurring seasonal pat-
tern. Symptoms of SAD that reoccur in the wintertime include: Having low energy, Hypersomnia,
Overeating, Weight gain, Craving for carbohydrates, Social withdrawal (feel like “hibernating”).
So, if you’re feeling this way around this time every year and if it’s especially difficult this year,
what can you do feel better? First, talk to your doctor. According to NIMH, there are four major
types of treatment for SAD that may be used alone or in combination with each other that your doc-
tor may recommend: medication, light therapy, psychotherapy, and vitamin D.
You and your doctor can discuss the risks and benefits of different medications; the purpose of light
therapy, what type of light is needed, and how to use it effectively; the advantages of psychotherapy;
and finally, the value of vitamin D supplementation.

122020 has been a Year of Challenge and Change.
SCAI has met this challenge due to the generous support of so many - the Foundations that
help fund us, the leadership of our Board of Directors, and the support of our participants and
the community.
We will be publishing an Annual Report in January that will have details on our activities and
financials for 2020. It will be emailed to those with email addresses and paper copies will be
available in the Center.
We look forward to turning the page on this difficult year and beginning 2021 with a renewed
spirit of hope and optimism.
We wish you and your loved ones an abundance of health and happiness
in the New Year.
