Oct 29 – Nov 2 is Thrive Week at UBC, and I encourage you to take this opportunity to explore your path to mental health. Though different for everyone, fostering and maintaining mental health typically involve the Thrive 5: moving regularly, sleeping soundly, staying nourished, helping others, and connecting socially.  Many events are open to everyone.  A few have been scheduled specifically for graduate students and include:

GSS Yoga, Oct 29, 12 – 1 | https://community.grad.ubc.ca/forum/5405
Understanding your Mental Health for Grad Students, Oct 30, 3:30 – 4:15 |

Grad Connections Café, Oct 30, 4:30 – 6 | community.grad.ubc.ca/forum/5342

How to Thrive as a TA, Oct 31, 9 – 10:30 |  https://community.grad.ubc.ca/forum/5404
