Weekly Wellness Corner
The Weekly Wellness Corner is brought to you by the Mental Health and Wellness Team – here, you’ll find content, tips, tricks, programs, and resources to help you live well and thrive as a Post Eagle!
Let’s talk about the importance of sleep!
Did you know? Poor sleep affects mental health by disrupting our circadian rhythms and interfering with our normal sleep stages, thereby throwing our bodies and our brains off kilter. A sleep-deficient brain has a decreased ability to make emotional judgments and incorporate multiple pieces of information into a decision.
Sleep is Sacred and should not be forced, especially for our Post students and faculty. Creating your own sleep routine, whether that is drinking tea, reading a book, or journaling; will help prepare you for a restful night’s rest!
BIG REMINDER: Your bed should only be associated with sleep so refrain from working or staring at your device for too long before getting your sleep.
Feel free to follow this 5-minute guided meditation before you go to sleep. Embracing a sense of gratitude at the end of the day can help relax your body, making it easier to fall asleep.
Polish Your Online Presence
November is National Career Development Month, and what better time than now to clean up your online presence! What you post online and what others post about you online is there forever, so it’s important to know what is out there on the internet about you. Typically, employers will research applicants online early in the application process, so doing a quick Google search for your name will give you a starting point for where information is posted online about you, whether it’s on blogs, social media, and other websites. The team in the Center for Career and Professional Development has prepared a checklist to help you go through the process of making sure you’re putting your best foot forward when it comes to your online presence. You can access that checklist by tapping the button below. Need help working through the checklist? Our career advisors are here and happy to help. Visit the Center for Career and Professional Development in North Hall Room 103, or schedule a virtual or in-person appointment by emailing [email protected].
