Join Sara to take some time for YOU and connect with nature! On this Winter Walk you will learn how the nature surrounding our campus can bring you peace, joy, and mindfulness during this busy time of year. Dress for the weather to explore our campus trails!
The start of a new term can feel exciting, overwhelming, or a mix of both - especially in winter. As part of THRIVE WEEK, this session offers a gentle space to pause, reflect, and ground yourself as you settle into the term. Whether you’re new to campus or returning, join us for calm conversation, guided reflection, and a reminder that it’s okay not to have everything figured out yet.
Don’t miss out on this exciting opportunity to connect and grow together!
