The Center for Excellence in Writing & Communication and The Center for Student Wellness & Health Promotion present Journal to Wellness!
Journal to Wellness Workshops provide a space for students to relax, reflect, and realize wellness at UCI. In our casual, salon-style space, participants consider how we are—or are not—caring for our minds, bodies and communities.
Join us every Monday for Mindful Mondays!
Every Monday will be a different mindfulness practice such as meditation, mindful movement, loving-kindness meditation, and many more. Mindfulness has been scientifically proven to help us cope with life’s stressors. Some of the benefits include anxiety reduction, enhanced sleep, improved mood, and increased ability to focus.
No previous experience necessary and great for beginners. Participants will receive an essential oil roller to carry their mindfulness practice with them wherever they are.
Wednesday Wellness Walks are a bi-weekly walking excursion to local points of interest near UCI. We’ll visit various parks and nature preserves that are right here in our backyard, all while incorporating mindfulness and ecological education! The walks are open to all students, faculty, and staff. Go at your own pace and feel free to leave at any time if you have mobility limitations or other obligations.
We meet at 11:30am in front of the Zot N’ Go and then embark on our journey. If there are any questions, please contact Doug Everhart at everhart@uci.edu.
