Learn to slow down from the busy pace of University and life!
This summer, join us for Mindfulness & Movement sessions — a refreshing way to ground yourself, boost your well-being, and enjoy the beauty of the UTM campus.
Starting June 1, the HCC and the RAWC are excited to launch our Mindfulness & Movement Summer Series. Together, we’ll expand our mindfulness practice beyond seated meditation and head outdoors for a guided walk designed to help you reconnect with your body, your surroundings, and your community.
Meet us at 1:30 PM at the Wellness Den in the Student Hub. We’ll return by 2:00 PM.
No experience needed — everyone is welcome, and drop-ins are encouraged.
We can’t wait to walk with you.
Lower Stress. Improve Mood. Feel Better.
