Do you feel like you're constantly stressed and your everyday life just can't get going? Would you like to know how you can take care of your own wellbeing? The Wellbeing Week of ISYY and the University of Eastern Finland will be celebrated again on October 3rd-7th 2022. This time the theme of the week is brain’s wellbeing.
Constant stress burdens our brain and at the same time negatively affects coping in everyday life. According to the Finnish Brain Association, our brain needs activity, but also rest. Everyone can promote the brain's wellbeing themselves, and small everyday choices have far-reaching effects. The purpose of Wellbeing Week is to offer UEF's students and staff a program that promotes wellbeing throughout the week.
This year, the theme of the wellbeing week will be approached from many different angles, such as through nutrition, culture and exercise. During the week there will be a traditional Sports Afternoon and Kaamos survival lecture to international students. As usual, the Finnish Kennel Club's Care Dogs also arrive on campus to be petted. On Thursday 6.10. will be organized movie nights. Some of the programs are also available online. You can find more information about the entire week's program and schedule at the link below.
