Posted on October 24, 2020

LARES is excited to introduce the Bienestar, or well-being, series. The goal of the Bienestar is to create a space for students to share challenges and experiences, identify strengths, and build skills while finding community.

Please download the flyer and share with students:

Let's talk about it! Your Bienestar, or well-being, is essential for academic success. We invite you to join our Bienestar conversation starters; a safe space for Latinx students to share experiences, identify strengths, and learn about self-care practices that support well-being.

I'm Okay....Maybe? Tuesday, October 27^th, 3pm

Balancing academics, work, and other responsibilities can be exhausting. In this session we will discuss STRESS—what is it, how to recognize it and how to manage it. Register: go.uic.edu/bienestar10_27

Love Yourself! Tuesday, November 10^th, 3pm

While we often find it easy to support others, we also tend to be our own worst critics. In this session, you will learn how to recognize self-criticism and be exposed to techniques aimed at boosting your confidence. Register: go.uic.edu/bienestar11_10
