Becoming Yourself Series 5.0 – Resilience through Reflection

| February 18, 2022
Submitted by Annie Zhao for Student Open Circles

As we transition to in-person learning, take a journey into asking: What are my strengths? Who do I want to be? How can I ground myself during change? How can I live my own values and stand up against pressures to conform? How do I live authentically when I feel judged?

What you need to know:

  • Learn about yourself and hear your own voice through mindfulness practice, writing, body awareness, movement, music, and visual creative expression.
  • Series will include weekly 50 minute workshops with interactive group exercises, reflective exercises to practice each day, a meeting with a staff coach, and creative activities designed to support you to:
    • Grow your courage to be who you really are
    • Learn how to stick to habits that support you in living fully alive
    • Be kind to yourself while taking risks
    • Discover how to hear your own voice more clearly
    • Question expectations around you instead of being complacent
    • Set relational boundaries, while bringing forth your authentic self
    • Realize your strengths and transform your fears and challenges

EVENT DETAILS:

March 3 – April 11 (Mondays 1:30 – 2:20 p.m. or Thursdays 10:30 – 11:20 a.m. EST)
