About this event
College life can make it difficult to maintain balanced eating habits and a healthy relationship with food and body image. This workshop explores how nutrition, body image, stress, and mental health are connected, while challenging harmful diet culture and unrealistic expectations. Come eat FREE minestrone soup while learning practical strategies for building healthier eating habits, improving self-compassion, recognizing the emotional impact of food choices, and supporting their overall mental and emotional well-being. Every participant will leave with a FREE soup making kit. This event is a part of Wellness Week. Join the Associated Students (AS) for a week of events from October 5–9 to help you recharge, de-stress, and discover the wellness resources available to you on campus. This is a chance for students to explore what supports their wellbeing—not just this week, but all semester long!
