Mental Health Concerns Committee

As students at Wabash College, we have all been there... We studied really hard for a test, only to find out that we failed. Instead of doing nothing, Hunter Bates (@RiseUp_11) thinks we should do something about it. Check out his thoughts here - buff.ly/2tIKD49

As the temperature drops, it gets more difficult to exercise. But remember, the hardest part is always starting! Get up today and get your heart rate up! (How bout them Little Giants on Saturday? 😉) . . . #WAF

Happy Monday! Today, work your strengths. By doing something you’re good at, you can build self-confidence. Then, you can tackle a tougher task! . . . #WAF

You already know what week it is! Manage your time accordingly so you can celebrate responsibly this weekend 🔔 Ding Ding 🔔 . . . #WAF

we often preach vulnerability to be unafraid to ask for support that can be daunting sometimes so today, we ask that you reach out to a friend ask how they’re doing and hear them out you never know who is in need of a friend today :) . . . #WAF

🔋 R E C H A R G E 🔋 As the weekend approaches, take some time to sit down and relax. Whether it’s a nap or just spending downtime with friends, don’t forget to rest your body and brain! Have a restful weekend :) . . . #WAF

Welcome back from fall break! We hope you’re feeling refreshed and ready to take on the second half of the semester! Planning your days out can help mediate the transition from a relaxing break back to the grind. Have a great week! . . . #WAF

It’s Midterm season... so what can you do to calm those testing nerves? • ground yourself • notice your surroundings • focus on your breathing • talk yourself through it you got this :) . . . #WAF

Sometimes our daily demands block our ability to savor life We don’t have to add activities to enjoy life, but instead we need to soak up the joy in the ones we’ve already got So, today try to... Share the joy Practice mindfulness Let out your emotions . . . #WAF

practice helps you hone your skills, right? good mental health behaviors demand time and attention—like any sport does. practice being vulnerable. practice writing down your thoughts. practice talking. It can only help you get better. . . . #WAF

b r e a t h e when our body relaxes as we breathe deeply, our sense of stress is diminished. we feel fewer negative emotions, our mind becomes quieter, our thoughts stiller. slow it down and take a deep breath. . . . #WAF

How have you slept this week? We often forget or choose not to prioritize one of the most important assets we have. A lack of sleep doesn’t just wreak havoc on your physical health, but on your mental health as well. Go hit the hay! . . . . . #WAF

Happy Monday! This week is another opportunity to work hard, but remember to take a break from your studies to be active. Whether it’s grinding it out in the weight room or jogging around town, exercise is important for your mental outlook. Here’s to a great week! . . . #WAF

Who are “your people”? You know the ones — these are the people you know you can always call, text, or email when you need to feel a connection. By building a list of people that you trust, with whom you can talk to in times of need, you allow yourself a strong sense of support
