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. Please wear appropriate clothes suitable for a walk out in nature, which may include adequate protection from the sun and closed toe shoes.

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.
Meetings will take place in the Conference Room of G319 Student Center, here at the Center for Student Wellness and Health Promotion.
