Research on how forest bathing impacts undergraduate student well-being
We’re all struggling to cope in our own ways right now. My way of coping, which I share here, may not necessarily be the best way for you. There’s also a good chance that what works best will change over time.
Hello incoming (and remaining) students! We hope that you are all continuing to keep as safe and healthy as can be these days. We know there was likely a massive upheaval to your lives as a result of this COVID-19 situation, and this Spring 2020 term is only adding to the burning uncertainty we all feel! Grad research or progress has been halted, UG curriculums have been rejigged, and our realities have been more isolated than usual. We know you've heard it many times from too many different broadcasters, but these are truely exceptional times we are living in!
Over the past few weeks I've noticed a shift in my thinking patterns. It wasn't entirely obvious at first, and was likely influenced by the constant stream of garble and disappointment hitting me from every possible angle and every fathomable source. It was more apparent last week than the week before. This weekend it made itself completely evident. I've been more edgy than usual; more cautious than not; and more... well... angry in general!
