What are some of your favorite ways to practice self care? I love to journal, go to the gym, and go for hikes! I’m also a firm believer in getting at least 8 hours of sleep per night, so I take any opportunity I can to go to sleep early.

What is your favorite thing about the Wellness Resource Center? I love all of the educational opportunities the WRC offers, like interactive trainings in consent, suicide prevention, or naloxone use. We also have some awesome self-care programming like journaling and mindfulness workshops, which I have found super helpful! I always enjoy meeting other students and faculty who are passionate about personal and community wellness!

Is there anything else you want students to know about the WRC? The physical Wellness Resource Center space has so many wellness supplies that we want to give away to students who need them! Come see us in Yalich (above the mail center!) to get free period products, condoms, snacks, ear plugs, and more– or just come chill (we have cool chairs)!
