Self-Care: Dear College Students, Kindly Remember to Prioritize Self-care

Dear college students,

As you embark on this new journey back to campus, remember that self-care is an essential component to living away from home. Amidst the excitement and challenges of college life, taking time for yourself is crucial to create spaces that bring about peace, balance, and well-roundedness.

In the hustle and bustle of college, it's easy to get caught up in the demands of academics, social life, and extracurricular activities. By prioritizing self-care, you may discover a reservoir of strength and resilience that will carry you through the ups and downs.

Here are some self-care reminders to help you find moments of peace and centeredness on campus:

Create Your Sanctuary. Designate a space in your dorm or room where you can unwind and feel at ease. Personalize it with items that bring you comfort and joy, like pictures, plants, or calming decorations.

Nourish Your Body. Remember to eat well-balanced meals and stay hydrated. Fueling your body with nutritious food will not only boost your physical health but also enhance your mental clarity.

Stay Connected. Surround yourself with supportive friends and seek connections with like-minded individuals. Sharing experiences and supporting each other can ease the challenges of college life.
