SUMMARY:Midweek Art Jam
DESCRIPTION:MIDWEEK ART JAM: Join us every Wednesday as we create art together in our fun\, inviting space here on the WCSU Midtown campus. No experience or talent required! We are looking to discover together the power of art\, community\, and creativity through rotating art projects that work to tackle stress\, manage our chaotic lives\, and tame our wandering minds.

We will be offering two sessions from 12:30-1:30 p.m. and 2-3 p.m. in the IHHS center (WH 114). And did we mention … there’s free tea! **Note\, we will be skipping March 13 due to Spring Break.

DESCRIPTION:MIDWEEK ART JAM: Join us every Wednesday as we create art together in our fun\, inviting space here on the WCSU Midtown campus. No experience or talent required! We are looking to discover together the power of art\, community\, and creativity through rotating art projects that work to tackle stress\, manage our chaotic lives\, and tame our wandering minds. Art can be a mindful and calming exercise in creative thinking\, but it can also be extraordinarily freeing\, allowing us to let go of perfection and embrace our own unique voice. We will be offering two sessions from 12:30-1:30 p.m. and 2-3 p.m. in the IHHS center (WH 114). And did we mention … there’s free tea! **Note\, we will be skipping March 13 due to Spring Break.

This will be a gathering of campus organizations\, each sharing cultural traditions and practices for creating stillness within\, to be an anchor in this challenging 21st-century world. \nWe will share our techniques and traditions with each other and discover that we all get to the same place\, a place of peace within\, although we may take different paths to get there.

SUMMARY:Self-Care Fair
DESCRIPTION:SELF-CARE FAIR: The Institute for Holistic Health Studies will present a Self-Care Fair from 12:30 – 3 p.m. in White Hall room 127. Self care is not selfish — it is health care for yourself\, and includes taking care of your body\, mind and spirit. Stopping to assess and identify what we need in the moment — whether a chance to stop and catch our breath\, a little time out to spend with a friend\, enjoy a cup of tea\, or take a walk outside — is an important part of self care and attention to our physical\, mental\, emotional and spiritual health. Join us as we share information and learn ways to take care of yourself — you are a special person and deserve it!

SUMMARY:Destress with Cats
DESCRIPTION:DESTRESS WITH CATS: Most people have heard about therapy dogs\, but what about therapy cats? These are very special cats\, in that they also have health challenges themselves — and are living proof that they have meaningful and happy lives in spite of their limitations. Come to Warner Hall Lyceum from noon to 2 p.m. to play with these frisky felines\, give them love\, and get love from them in return. Take a lesson from them that life is beautiful\, and it is all about attitude.

SUMMARY:Anxiety Post-Covid-19
DESCRIPTION:ANXIETY IN THE POST-COVID-19 WORLD:  The World Health Organization reported that the COVID-19 pandemic triggered a 25% increase in prevalence of anxiety and depression worldwide\, and just a few months ago the U.S. National Institute of Mental Health reported the COVID-19 Pandemic was associated with worse mental health and accelerated brain development in adolescents. These negative mental health outcomes throughout the world can impact social interactions and relationships\, and they are likely to be evident in problematic social anxiety for some time to come. Yet around 50% of the patients treated for generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) will not respond to first-line treatment such as antidepressant therapy. That means there is a lot of room for improvement\, such as integrative and naturopathic care! Join Dr. Shawn M. Carney\, naturopathic physician at Northeast Natural Medicine\, LLC\, at 7 p.m. in White Hall 127\,  and review the scientific literature for how evidence-based herbal medicine\, specialty testing\, effective use of vitamins\, minerals and neurotransmitters\, acupuncture and lifestyle medicine can help! \nThis event is free and open to the entire WCSU community and the general public \nThis event is sponsored by the Institute for Holistic Health Studies at WCSU.

SUMMARY:Destress with Cats
DESCRIPTION:DESTRESS WITH CATS: Come to Warner hall Lyceum anytime between 11 a.m. – 2 p.m. to play with cats and learn about feline disabilities. The Institute for Holistic Health Studies shared these kitties with you last semester and are now bringing them back to campus. Petting these kitties can lower your blood pressure and release stress and tension in your body\, and actually release oxytocin\, the “bonding hormone”– it is good for you and good for the kitties!
