Day 4 It’s the last day of Red Ribbon Week and we want to thank you for your participation in supporting healthy, drug free lifestyles. We hope you’ve really thought about the meaning of “living naturally high” and how making healthy choices will help you achieve your goals in life. We close out the week by hearing from Donald Brown, former NFL running back. He says he knew that his dream of being in the NFL would be his by persevering and making the decision to live naturally high.

Day 1 Today is the first day of Red Ribbon Week. This year’s theme is Be Kind to Your Mind. Live Drug Free. It’s a call to action to support healthy choices and serves as a reminder that drugs hinder brain development. The next 4 days were going to focus on making positive and healthy choices and living naturally high. A natural high can come from any activity that makes you feel good — and doesn’t involve drugs. Doing things you enjoy, like riding your skateboard or dabbling in photography, releases natural feel-good chemicals in your brain like dopamine, which regulates movement, emotion, motivation, and happiness. In today’s Natural High’s video, meet Tony Azevedo, who's natural high is water polo. He's a five time Olympian, former captain of the U.S. National Men’s Water Polo team, and fourth on the list of ‘most goals ever’. And behind his amazing record is an impressive story of resilience and perseverance. He talks about how his setbacks fueled his passions for doing something great with his life.
