Friday is Valentine's Day, a day set aside for Hallmark and chocolate manufacturers to make extra money or for us to show our love and appreciation for one another, depending on whether you are more of a cynic or a romantic! Kidding aside, we as human beings are hard-wired for connection. Social connectedness affects us psychologically and social-emotionally by providing meaningful interactions, emotional support, and a sense of belonging, all important factors for our mental health. This week, reflect upon and share your appreciation to those in your community whom you feel a sense of connectedness. They will appreciate your acknowledgment, and sharing your appreciation will make you feel good too! If you are struggling to make connections, come see us at the CARES Hub in Arms 1261 or stop by to see our therapist, Jennie, during her walk-in hours for some helpful advice. Jennie's walk-in hours are in ARMS 1251 from 1 - 2 p.m. daily, Monday through Friday. STUDENT SUCCESS RESOURCES See your advisor! They are one of your single best resources at Purdue.
