Feeling burned out? Your brain and body need about 42% of your time for rest to stay healthy and focused. Join “Avoiding Burnout and the Importance of Self-Care” with Libby Tsibulsky on 9/19, 12 to 1 p.m. to learn practical strategies for preventing burnout and prioritizing self-care. Link in bio

Take a mindful break and join us for a virtual vision board session with certified Creatively Fit Coach and SUNY Empire Librarian Heather Shalhoub. On 9/19 at 4 p.m. we’ll use breathing, visualization, and creativity to set self-care goals and bring them to life. No art experience is needed as we tap into relaxation, intuition, and creativity for Student Parent Month.

Supplies needed include magazines you don’t mind cutting up, scissors, glue sticks (regular glue can work but may warp paper), and paper 8.5"x11" or larger (cardstock works best). If doing this as a family, you can also use one large piece of paper together. Link in bio
