On behalf of the Mitchell Hamline Wellness Committee, and the Dean of Students Office, I am excited to let you know about Mitchell Hamline\u2019s upcoming Virtual Wellness Week. This year\u2019s Virtual Wellness Week is focused around Wholistic Wellness and kicks off\u00a0 Monday, March 29th<\/sup> with programs on nutritional, emotional, financial, spiritual, and physical wellness.<\/p>\n

We have also created a Gratitude Board<\/a> and Wellness LibGuide<\/a>.

The Gratitude Board is a place to share your thoughts of gratitude and promote positive emotions.\u00a0 The Wellness Library guide is filled with articles, resources, and websites related to a variety of wellness topics. There is even a link to an Explore LiveCam website,<\/a> to take a break and watch some playful polar bears or koalas.<\/p>\n

Below you will find the schedule of events and the Zoom link for each program, along with a description of the program. All times are in Central Time. We hope that you enjoy all that this year\u2019s Wellness Week has to offer.<\/p>\n
