Are you feeling overwhelmed, or like you just can't keep up with everything coming your way over the next few weeks? You’re not alone, and what you feel is probably normal. Remember, it’s okay to not be okay. With the end of the school year coming up there’s often a lot still to do before we can take a break, check-out for the summer, and let go of what’s been stressing us for the last 6 or 7 months.
School is hard, but we’re here to help. Join staff from Student Health & Wellness outside the Main Cafeteria on March 2nd between 1:30pm and 3:30pm to learn about the effects of academic burnout, supports on campus to help you manage, and even pick up some helpful tips to reduce the likelihood of academic burnout.
It can often be a challenge to take a minute to ourselves, so why not make self-care a habit and Take10.

Join Student Health and Wellness for a live, counsellor-led workshop to learn skills, strategies and tips on preparing, studying and coping with the stress of tests/exams.
Join us every Wednesday in March for a short guided mindfulness practice. No registration or experience required.
As staff and faculty, you are often the first to recognize that a student is in distress so it is important that you feel equipped to identify these behaviours and also understand how you can help. The Supporting Students in Distress Guide and accompanying workshop outline the various levels of distress and the resources you can provide for a student in each level of distress. We will also cover available supports in various areas, both on and off-campus including Counselling and Wellness, Academic Services, Disability Services, Legal and Conduct, and Community Supports.
Graduate students are welcome to attend.
Registration required, session delivered via zoom.
