Graduate Student Welcome Weeks: Healthy Habits for Graduate Students

The most important tool for academic success is your wellness. In this presentation, we will introduce personal wellness, and support participants as they pursue positive physical, mental and social wellbeing. Participants will learn to recognize stress, develop emotionally healthy habits and build their wellness care kit.

Participants will complete self-assessments related to individualized stress responses and areas of personal wellness (emotional, environmental, intellectual, occupational, physical, social, and spiritual) where they are thriving, as well as identify those areas that may need greater attention. Participants will leave this presentation with an action plan for achieving lasting personal wellness.

Please complete the Recognizing our automatic stress responses to stress assessment activity on pages 8-12 in From Surviving to Thriving and UMatter Wellness Self-assessment activity on pages 4-7 in Healthy Habits Workbook in advance of the workshop, so that we can discuss your results during the presentation.
