SQ Employee Newsletter - August 2026

August is National Wellness Month

August is National Wellness Month, a time to focus on healthy habits that support both your physical and mental well-being. Wellness isn’t about making big changes overnight—it’s about taking small, consistent steps that help you feel your best at work and at home.

Whether it’s getting more sleep, staying hydrated, taking a walk during your break, or simply checking in with a friend or coworker, every positive choice contributes to a healthier lifestyle.

Five Simple Ways to Prioritize Your Wellness

  • Stay Hydrated: Keep a water bottle nearby and drink water throughout the day, especially during hot summer months.
  • Keep Moving: Stretch, take a short walk, or get up and move regularly to reduce stiffness and improve energy.
  • Eat Smart: Choose balanced meals and healthy snacks that help keep you fueled throughout the day.
  • Get Quality Sleep: Aim for 7–9 hours of sleep each night to support focus, recovery, and overall health.
  • Take Time to Recharge: Even a few minutes to relax, practice deep breathing, or step away from your workspace can help reduce stress.

Remember, wellness looks different for everyone. The important thing is finding healthy habits that work for you and making them part of your daily routine.

Wishing everyone a healthy, safe, and successful August!

We Love Our Pets!

Pets of the Month

Show off your pet! Submit a photo and short description and we may feature it.

Trystan

Trystan is an 11-year old Border Collie born in GA and raised in SC. He is a sweet boy who loves catching and chasing balls, no matter how hot it is or how tired he may be. He is also guilty of stealing his human brothers’ and sister’s toys! 

Trystan is extremely intelligent and emotional and almost communicates on a human level. He’s a good soccer ball handler and could have been a goalie in another life. Thunder and fireworks are probably his least favorite things.

We love his one floppy ear and hope to have him around for several more years!
