#NationalStressAwarenessDay

Screens leave us tense and restless. But when we listen to a story, our minds shift gear. We create our own inner pictures. This gentle, creative focus helps slow breathing, ease tension and lower stress hormones.

Visit RockfordsRockOpera.com to listen and unwind.

At Rockford’s Rock Opera, we love how fossils connect science and storytelling. On the Island of Infinity, the Fossil Record Office preserves the last one of every extinct species, their lives continuing as tales that inspire new ideas about nature, time, and evolution. Our blog has free resources.

In the Brdy region of the Czech Republic, a family of beavers built a series of dams, restoring wetlands and improving water quality—all without human intervention and in 2 days.

Their work naturally achieved what a stalled government $1.2 million project had aimed to do for years. #goodnews
