Back to School, Back to Work, Back to You

"Back to School, Back to Work, Back to You"

Finding Your Fall Reset

Summer is winding down, and with it comes the shift back into routine — classrooms are filling, offices are buzzing, and gyms are welcoming members ready to recommit. Whether you’re a student, a parent, or a professional, this season offers the perfect chance to reset and realign. At NTx Connect, we’re here to help you make that transition smoother, more intentional, and even a little inspiring.

Back to School Routine

Getting back into a back-to-school routine isn’t just about early mornings and packed lunches. It’s about creating habits that support focus, productivity, and balance. Setting consistent sleep schedules, planning healthy meals, and carving out time for both study and play can make all the difference in how the school year starts.

Back to Work Tips

Heading back to the office (or just back into the post-summer workflow) can feel overwhelming. Here are a few simple back to work tips to keep your days productive and less stressful:

  • Prioritize tasks with a daily to-do list.
  • Take movement breaks to refresh your focus.
  • Set boundaries for a healthier work-life balance.

Think of this season as a fresh slate, an opportunity to refine your systems, tackle projects with clarity, and reconnect with your team.

Back to the Gym Motivation

Motivation often begins with action and what better way to reignite your fitness goals than by checking out all that’s new at the gym? Commons Fitness just added three new treadmills and two new ellipticals, delivering smoother strides and upgraded features to elevate your cardio workouts. Embrace that first jog or session with a renewed sense of purpose. Visit our fitness center and host of classes that we offer at: www.commonsfit.com.

Healthy Habits After Summer

From late-night barbecues to weekend getaways, summer can throw off even the healthiest routines. Fall is your chance to reset:

  • Reintroduce balanced meals and meal prepping.
  • Stay hydrated throughout busy days.
  • Schedule downtime for mindfulness or reflection.

These healthy habits after summer don’t just improve wellness, but they boost energy, productivity, and focus in every area of life.

Mental Health Starts Here: The Role of Wellness at Work.

July 1, 2025
"Mental Health Starts Here: The Role of Wellness at Work."

In today’s fast-paced professional world, maintaining mental health is no longer a luxury, it’s a necessity. More businesses are realizing that supporting the emotional, psychological, and physical well-being of their teams leads to happier employees, greater productivity, and a healthier company culture. One of the most powerful places to begin nurturing that mental health? The workplace itself.

At The Commons, we believe that mental health starts right here—where we work, move, and connect. That’s why we’re proud to highlight Commons members who are doing vital work in the fields of wellness, therapy, and recovery. Each brings a unique approach to promoting wellness at work and beyond, offering resources that help individuals lead more balanced, mentally fit lives.

The Connection Between Wellness and Mental Health

There’s no denying the link between physical health and mental health. Research consistently shows that regular exercise reduces symptoms of anxiety and depression, improves sleep, and boosts mood. Add mindfulness, therapy, and recovery tools to that mix, and you’ve got a holistic strategy for well-being.

Workplace wellness initiatives, whether through fitness programs, mental health support, or recovery resources—help reduce burnout, absenteeism, and turnover. But most importantly, they empower employees to take control of their health in an environment that supports their journey.
