    Balance Looks Different for Everyone

    Balance is often talked about like it’s a fixed formula - equal parts work, rest, exercise, and fun. But in reality, balance looks different for everyone, and it can shift depending on what season of life you’re in.

Research shows that self-compassion, treating yourself with the same care you’d offer a friend, improves resilience, motivation, and mental well-being (Neff, 2021). This February, Campus Recreation’s Wellness & Fitness Wednesday series, brought to you by Move Your Mood, explores the importance of kindness toward ourselves, both in and out of movement.  (Read full entry)
