As the holidays approach you may be traveling to be with family and friends, engaging in annual holiday traditions, and thinking about all the delicious food you will be consuming! Despite the busyness of the holidays, we want to encourage you to pause and take time to consider those things in your life, both large and small, for which you are grateful. In recent years research has demonstrated that practicing gratitude increases happiness and well-being. By taking time to be mindful and identify gratitude for even the simple things in life, we become happier, more optimistic, and begin retraining our brain to look for things that make us smile and feel good. Gratitude promotes our well-being! Tip: Gratitude can come in the form of life's simplest pleasures - a cup of perfectly brewed coffee, an enjoyable conversation, a cozy blanket, or a warm hug from a friend or loved one. Question: Are you using mindfulness to aid in your expression of gratitude? What are you grateful for today? As the fall semester comes to a close, the CARES Hub staff are grateful for the over 2,500 engineering students who have spent time in the CARES Hub with us this semester and for the roughly 1,500 more who have attended our workshops and QPR trainings to both improve their own well-being and to learn how to support the well-being of others. Well-being is a community effort, and we are grateful for our students who are committed to building an engineering community of well-being and support. We appreciate you more than you know and look forward to collaborating with you in the semesters to come. STUDENT SUCCESS RESOURCES See your advisor!

Greetings from the CARES Hub! With the end of the semester fast approaching and projects and exams looming, restful sleep becomes even more important. Are you getting the recommended 7 - 9 hours of sleep per night? 55% of Purdue students surveyed said no. Why is sleep so important? * Learning - healthy sleep positively impacts your learning, concentration, and creativity. * Efficiency - healthy sleep helps you recharge. Skipping or reducing sleep for other commitments reduces your overall productivity and efficiency. * Decision-making - healthy sleep improves decision-making and problem-solving skills. * Well-being - healthy sleep improves your mood and ability to regulate your emotions. Need a helpful guide to help you improve the length and quality of your sleep? Check out Purdue RecWell's sleep handbook<https://www.purdue.edu/recwell/pdf/wellness/sleep-packet.pdf>.

Meeting with a licensed therapist for counseling should be as easy as going to the doctor for the flu. You do not have to have a mental health diagnosis to benefit from counseling. Counseling can help you to: * Find clarity in areas of your life that are troublesome. * Work through complex emotions like grief or the end of a relationship. * Work through a stressful or traumatic experience. * Challenge negative thinking patterns. * Learn new coping techniques related to experiences like stress, anxiety, and loneliness. * Focus on personal growth. Did you know that the College of Engineering has its own therapist, Jennie Beutler, whom you can see free of charge? Jennie has walk-in hours every day, Monday through Friday, from 12:30 - 1:30 p.m. in ARMS 1251. You can also schedule an initial screening with her here<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpurdueu-c…>. Jennie's student clients report via anonymous data collection that their stress levels have been reduced by 82% after meeting with her just 2 - 5 times! We encourage you to consider stopping in to see her. Improving your mental health enhances your overall well-being, including your ability to thrive academically!
