March 8 is International Women's Day and this year's theme is #choosetochallenge.
A challenged world is an alert world. Individually, we're all responsible for our own thoughts and actions - all day, every day.
We can all choose to challenge and call out gender bias and inequality. We can all choose to seek out and celebrate women's achievements. Collectively, we can all help create an inclusive world.
From challenge comes change, so let's all choose to challenge.
Celebrate Nutrition month by joining Student Health and Wellness for a live, counsellor-led mindful eating meditation session via zoom. Bring your lunch or a snack.
Mindful eating focuses on in-the-moment awareness of the food and drink you put into your body. It involves observing how the food makes you feel and the signals your body sends about taste, satisfaction, and fullness.
No experience necessary – whether you are new to meditation or practice regularly, having the support of a group can help to strengthen your practice.
