Every Friday for the rest of the semester students can earn Bulldog Bucks for the Third Spaces they attend. Taking care of yourself can take a lot of different forms. One way to do that is by purchasing the things that you need like food or snacks.

Welcome back from Spring Break students! We hope you enjoyed the break and got some much deserved R&R. We’re back this Friday in the Third Space with presentation on Focus & Attention.

Getting back into the swing of things sometimes takes a lot of our energy but usually it starts with our ability to regain focus and attention. Join us to learn more and help yourself finish strong this semester!

Yesterday we had the privilege to spend time with the Spring Drake/KUST cohort to explore and deepen ways to improve mental health resources at Drake and for various colleges in China.

We are always thrilled to learn about ways to grow mental health locally and globally and look forward to partnering with the Drake/KUST cohort in the future.

What does self-care look like when you’re constantly exposed to or witnessing overwhelm, stress, and hurt that impacts you personally and those around you? Liberatory self-care focuses not only on your mental well-being, but grounds you in soothing your nervous system and accessing empowerment.

These strategies can be practiced individually and within communities that bring a sense of safety and connectedness.

Which strategy are you willing to try? For more self-help resources, please visit TimelyCare via your App Store (free) or TimelyCare.com/drake.
