Anteaters for Recovery is a new support group program at UCI intended for students who identify as being in recovery.
Whether it’s recovery from alcoholism, drug addiction, eating disorders, growing up in an alcoholic family, or any other life-altering situation, you’re not alone. Join us in this safe and confidential space where we share, listen, support, and uplift each other. Our meetings are led by a pro-staff member also in recovery.
Anteaters for Recovery is not therapy or group counseling, but rather a support system where you can heal, grow, and thrive with others.
Join us every Monday for a journey into mindfulness! Each week, we’ll explore different practices such as meditation, mindful movement,and loving-kindness meditation. Science shows that mindfulness can reduce anxiety, improve sleep, enhance your mood, and boost focus.
No prior experience needed —beginners are warmly welcomed! Asa special gift, participants will receive an essential oil roller to carry their mindful practice with them.
We’ll gather in front of Zot N’ Go, then embark as a group to a serene spot for our meditation session.
Learn the theories and strategies behind bystander intervention, and gain the confidence to step up and intervene or provide help to someone who may be in harms way or in need of comfort.
Bystander Effect: A theory that states that individuals are less likely to offer help to a victim when there are other people present.
