From the Office of Student Wellness: During the winter months when there is less daylight, it’s normal to have some days when you feel down. 
However, if this feeling lasts for extended periods of time and you are unable to become motivated to engage in your usual activities, it’s important to see your medical provider as this may be a sign of Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). Click the link in the bio to learn more about SAD.
#MentalHealthMatters #SelfCare #SeasonalWellness #BeatTheWinterBluesFrom the Office of Student Wellness: Perfectionism is not an attainable goal, especially when it comes to academic performance.
Rather, shifting towards healthy striving allows for a more realistic perspective and approach. 
This means establishing practical goals and striving for excellence, not perfection. Experiencing a few set-backs does not undue all the progress you have made and will continue to make while working towards a goal. 
Click the link in our bio to learn more about perfectionism and healthy striving. 
#HealthyStriving #ProgressOverPerfection #StudentWellness #AcademicSuccess #MentalHealthMatters #StriveForExcellence #LSSCcares #YouGotThisFrom the Office of Student Wellness: As we head towards the end of the spring semester, being aware of how to proactively manage your stress levels can help you finish strong!
It is ideal to operate in the peak performance zone when focused on your academic performance. However, if you find yourself in the imbalanced zone, it is not too late to move back into the peak performance zone by implementing a variety of stress management strategies for your well-being. 
If you find yourself in the breakdown or overwhelming pressure zone, it is essential you reach out for help and support to get you back to a healthy zone.

From the Office of Student Wellness: A bystander is someone who witnesses a situation where a person is in trouble and has the opportunity to intervene.

From the Office of Student Wellness:
As part of identifying the signs of healthy and unhealthy relationships, two resources to be aware of are the ‘Equality Wheel’ 
and the ‘Power and Control Wheel’ 
developed by the Domestic Abuse Intervention Project, Duluth, Minnesota.
The ‘Equality Wheel’ highlights essential elements of a healthy relationship where equality is at the center while boundaries help establish and set limits for ourselves.
The ‘Power and Control Wheel’ describes the signs of unhealthy relationships and the strategies, including violence, the abuser utilizes to demonstrate power and control over a partner.

From the Office of Student Wellness:
As highlighted in yesterday’s post focused on consent, healthy communication 
and active listening 
are important behaviors when building and strengthening friendships and relationships. No relationship is without conflict 
as it is unavoidable and a natural part of life. However, unhealthy behaviors may arise during conflict situations with your partner 
, and you can be mindful of how to address these negative and potentially harmful communication styles. 
It is also important to be aware of the primary approaches to conflict and how there is not one ‘best’ approach.
Rather, each style is related to our personalities, perspectives, and the specific situation. 
Click the link in the bio to learn more about the conflict management styles.

From the Office of Student Wellness:
Consent is important in every relationship, even in friendships. 
Consent is about respecting your partner’s wants and needs. This includes listening to your partner and never pressuring them into something they do not want to do. 
Consent to do one thing does not mean consent to everything. All the more reason to keep having honest and open communication with your partner during sexually intimate situations to make sure you are on the same page.

When thinking about the daily interactions with those around you, it is helpful to recognize and understand your own communication style. Intentionally engaging in healthy communication takes practice.
It is also important to be aware that in relationships—whether with a partner, friend, coworker, or family—conflict is inevitable and can be healthy to a certain extent.
Learning how to manage conflict in a respectful, healthy way can help support positive relationships.

From the Office of Student Wellness: During the winter months when there is less daylight, it’s normal to have some days when you feel down. However, if this feeling lasts for extended periods of time and you are unable to become motivated to engage in your usual activities, it’s important to see your medical provider as this may be a sign of Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). Click the link in the bio to learn more about SAD.
#MentalHealthMatters #SelfCare #SeasonalWellness #BeatTheWinterBluesFrom the Office of Student Wellness: Perfectionism is not an attainable goal, especially when it comes to academic performance.
Rather, shifting towards healthy striving allows for a more realistic perspective and approach. This means establishing practical goals and striving for excellence, not perfection. Experiencing a few set-backs does not undue all the progress you have made and will continue to make while working towards a goal. Click the link in our bio to learn more about perfectionism and healthy striving.
#HealthyStriving #ProgressOverPerfection #StudentWellness #AcademicSuccess #MentalHealthMatters #StriveForExcellence #LSSCcares #YouGotThisFrom the Office of Student Wellness: As we head towards the end of the spring semester, being aware of how to proactively manage your stress levels can help you finish strong!
It is ideal to operate in the peak performance zone when focused on your academic performance. However, if you find yourself in the imbalanced zone, it is not too late to move back into the peak performance zone by implementing a variety of stress management strategies for your well-being. If you find yourself in the breakdown or overwhelming pressure zone, it is essential you reach out for help and support to get you back to a healthy zone.
