Studiosity

There may be thousands of students enrolled at university but it's not always easy to find your community. If you have tried to connect and it hasn't turned out as expected, don't worry. Reaching out once is hard but following up a 2nd or 3rd time can really difficult. Hang in there and take another chance. Friendships take time.

So what might help?

The World Health Organisation's guidelines focus on our cardio fitness so when thinking about exercise and mental wellbeing, being active is about getting involved in something you enjoy, and moving your body in a fun way. Exercise doesn't mean getting to the gym (unless that's your jam). We're talking about boosting our mood with any movement that helps you feel good about your body.

We are often directed to nature when it comes to taking care of our wellbeing. Whilst walking through the park or swimming in the ocean have great therapeutic benefits, it can also remind us about the ongoing degradation of the planet.
