Wellbeing: Boosting low mood
This term is always busy with exams, deadlines, and dissertations. It can take a toll on your mental health, so we want to bring attention to looking after yourself. There are times when our mood fluctuates, and this is a natural response to difficult circumstances. We all need to prioritise our health; both physical and mental. If you feel as though you need some tips on managing low mood, then please register for our next Steps to Wellbeing session on Thursday 11 May, 10am-11am. Registrations close at midnight on Wednesday 10 May.
Breathwork Workshop
Join us, in collaboration with Disability Services, Warwick Sport, and Sapranah, to learn about how to use breathing techniques to benefit both your physical and mental wellbeing. Book your free place for the workshop on Thursday 11 May at 10am, 12pm and 2pm in the Sports and Wellness Hub.
