This year's Botany and Zoology Wellness Symposium will be hosted in person, as a half-day smorgasbord starting with breakfast and board games, followed by yoga, a Prosociality Talk by two Psychology grad students, then our popular "paint-a-potted-plant" activity (from the 2020 symposium), and finished by a mindfulness workshop led by Sangeeta Kaur, a certified Kundalini Yoga Instructor with Master’s degrees in both Environmental Biology and Neuroscience, Mindfulness, and Contemplative Practice.
Details:
Date: Monday, March 6th
Time: 8:30am - 1pm
Location: Biodiversity Research Centre (BRC)
Register here!
The symposium is free, and open to everyone. You're welcome to pop in and out, however we are asking anyone interested to register in advance so we can get an estimated headcount. Space is limited for the yoga session and paint-a-potted-plant activity, and will be filled in order of registration. You will be notified if you get a spot in either of these activities, or if you're on the waitlist. If you don't get a spot in either of these, please still come to enjoy the rest of the symposium!
The mindfulness workshop will be hybrid, and a zoom link will be sent out in our following reminder email, for anyone that wants to participate remotely.
