Join us next week with UFV Unite<\/a> as we align with the theme of this year\u2019s Canadian Mental Health Association (CMHA) Mental Health Week of Social Connection<\/strong>. Connecting with other people and our communities doesn\u2019t just feel good. It\u2019s good for our mental health.<\/p>\n

A message from CMHA: These days, it\u2019s hard to tell the weeks apart. Look forward to CMHA\u2019s #MentalHealthWeek May 4-10. We need each other more than ever, so join us and #GetReal about how you feel. Visit www.mentalhealthweek.ca<\/a> to learn more and download the tools! #TogetherApart<\/p>\n

Throughout the week we hope you take time to connect with others as well as internally, while keeping in mind the importance of physical activity while finding balance, community engagement, social support and making healthy lifestyle choices. Remember, one type of person to connect with this week are mothers! This upcoming Sunday, May 10 we honor all the motherhood figures in our lives on Mother’s Day!<\/p>\n

We will be providing ways to connect with your local community, a check-in on your movement goals with the help from ParticipAction, and understanding why self-care matters, including activity suggestions such as rock painting and giving a UFV Crossword a try.<\/p>\n

In addition to the Human Resources learning and development workshops<\/a> offered this week, join us on Tuesday, May 5 from 10-10:30am for a Bluejeans Coffee Break – #TogetherApart<\/a> chat around self-care.<\/p>\n
