Pets in costumes are good for your well-being — yes, really!
what's got us buzzing
Pets in costumes are good for your well-being — yes, really!
😊 Smiling is good for your health. And the more you smile, the happier you might be. Smiling causes the brain to release dopamine, which leads to more joy. And get this: Silly work distractions can actually lead to increased motivation and stronger focus!

🐶 You know what always makes us smile? Pets, especially when they're dressed up in Halloween costumes! So, let's distract you from reality for a bit and take a look at some cuties, shall we?

(For your health, of course.)
❤️ Thank you to everyone who submitted these photos. (The feature photo above is Product Marketing Senior Manager Lori Miller and her dog shark Starla, by the way.) You brought us so much joy, and now, we're sharing it with everyone else!
Say hello to Editor Heather Hobbs' pumpkin pup Daisy and Bezzy Senior Editor Sara McTigue's cat-bat Ollie!

Next up is Senior Program Manager Thavy Sar's spooky spider dog Don Barry Louis III alongside Senior SEO Associate Mary-Kate Butler's cat bat Zoey.
And last but certainly not least, here's Senior Software Engineer Henry Castro's pomsky Bruno and dachshund Homer.

Dr. Teal's Pure Epsom Salt Soak, Lavender
Dr. Teal's Pure Epsom Salt Soak, Lavender
Another thing that can help take the edge off: Epsom salt soaks. For centuries, people have been using them to remedy electrolyte imbalances, constipation, muscle soreness, and other health issues … and I'm one of them! I've added this lavender salt to baths for a couple of years now, and it really helps calm me down and relieve my aching body. This combo deal even comes with a foaming liquid for bubble bath lovers.
