Life’s difficulties can all take a toll on our personal well-being.  Unmet expectations, academic or workplace stresses, and relationship difficulties can leave us feeling disoriented and confused.  When faced with such situations, our mind naturally tries to make sense of our experiences by creating narratives.  These stories, often based on one-sided perspectives and incomplete information, can be limiting and unhealthy, yet we often find ourselves repeating them over and over.  This can negatively impact how we view ourselves and how we perceive and interact with those around us.

This drop in provides a safe and confidential space to share your experience and concerns related to being a graduate student. 

Themes discussed include balancing work and self-care, complications that arise in interpersonal relationships, navigating difficult conversations, getting unstuck, managing perfectionism and the internal critic, imposter syndrome, and fostering resilience. 

This drop in is intended to provide members with support, affirmation and interpersonal learning, while also providing some skills and strategies to enhance well-being.

Collective care can be a powerful form of resistance. This drop-in space can be whatever is needed by Black students who would like to join. We can debrief experiences of anti-black racism, provide mutual support around race-related stress, share unique experience of being a Black student at UW, and celebrate resiliencies and Black joy.  

This group offers students the opportunity to take a break, get outside, and run/walk using the basic principles of mindfulness (being present in a non-judgmental mindset). Runners of all levels are welcome. This is a drop in format: come to every session, or just one! Folks are encouraged to dress according to weather, wear running shoes and bring water. We will have a quick 15 minute chat on the topic of mindfulness and then go out for a run together.
