Saturday, January 14, 2023 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm

Winter is a hard season for many of us. The days are shorter, the quality of light is not as brilliant as the spring and summer months, the cold temperatures limit our activities and often lead us to retreat inside. For these reasons and more, our mental health can really suffer during the winter months. Join us for this creative workshop as we focus on how winter can be a season of healing dormancy and restoration. We will use art to explore the ways that we want to care for ourselves in this season.

Register now at https://uoguelph.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_e8JrR3logzTf8XQ.

Wellness@Work will provide the essential materials of four postcards for all those who register by end of the day on Jan. 9, to ensure that this workshop is accessible to all participants. The supplies will be available to pick-up on the 5th floor UC, South Tower from Isidora Nezic’s office on Jan. 12, between 10:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m.
