Dear John,
How are you doing? Hopefully, you experienced a good first semester. However, you may also have encountered certain challenges that at times made everything feel quite demanding, tiring or difficult. Some challenges are part of everyday life and your personal development, but there may be times when you could use some support and a helping hand. This is where we can help you. We have a diverse and freely accessible wellbeing programme and would like to highlight some initiatives in this newsletter.
Wellbeing greetings,
Team Student Wellbeing

Wellbeing workshops and activities
|
Now that the corona restrictions are over and busy life continues, you may sometimes feel overwhelmed. Or maybe you are still getting used to student life in general. In Block 3, you can again take part in various trainings and activities. For example, workshops on developing resilience, autonomy or energy management.
Would you rather get creative? Then the activities in cooperation with Parnassos might be something for you. Or if you would like to work on your physical well-being, you can join one of the free sports sessions at Olympos. You can also talk to a coach or fellow student, one-to-one or with a group, anonymously, online or on location. Click below to see what best suits you.
