How to balance FITNESSS and MENTAL HEALTH in a place like ours where high-performance sports culture can blur the line between wellness and burnout? Get expert advice from Kelly Daly, a physical therapist at Howard Head Sports Medicine, and Matt Lawson, a personal trainer and licensed professional counselor at Vail Health Behavioral Health, in this article from Covered Bridge Magazine: https://coveredbridgevail.com/how-to-navigate-high-performance-culture-in-mountain-communities/

In mountain communities, high performance is often the norm. Ultra races, endless training plans, 100-day ski seasons and packed schedules can make it easy to forget what true wellness looks like.

As devoted supporters of our nonprofit partner Mountain Pride and members of the LGBTQIA+ community who have called the valley home since 1995, they know firsthand how much belonging and access to quality care matter in a small mountain town.

Imagine a cancer patient, exhausted from treatment and in pain, who doesn't have to leave home to receive palliative care. Instead, a nurse knocks on their front door to provide comfort and symptom management. This is what Shaw at Home makes possible. Thanks to the generosity of the Vail Health Volunteer Corps, we were able to purchase a vehicle for the care team.

Now through June 30, your gift will have twice the impact as we aim to raise an additional $34,000. Help our patients heal at home, donate today: https://ow.ly/nKUs50Z2v6y 💙
