Staying Healthy: Mind, Body, & Spirit

November 11, 2012 - 6:07pm

  Students are so focused on academics and of course their weekend festivities which sometimes takes a whole week to recover from. Most students think that “unwinding” and “de-stressing” includes beer pong, drinking all weekend, hangovers at football games, and recreational drugs. Now, of course students are in college to experiment and to party, but there comes a time where we should “unwind” and “de-stress” in a healthy way. Taking care of our mind, body, and spirit really allows for overall better health. As midterms have passed and finals approach, take advantage of the snow and cold weather to stay inside. Snuggle up to a good movie while you work on homework with a hot cup of apple cider. READ...

We’ve nearly made it through midterm season, Halloween is rapidly approaching, and Missoula is in full fall color. As we feel the first breezes of winter’s chill and long for the sweet, sweet release of November (Election Day, Veterans Day, and Thanksgiving—the inspirational thought of the amount of time spent not in school next month is what’s getting me through October), there’s one major consideration (pun very much intended) that has students lifting their heads from this semester’s textbooks and considering their lives’ big pictures—at least, as far as those pictures extend to next spring.

Be Stress Free!


By Janelle Schmit
October 14, 2012 - 6:05pm

If you’re like me, you love being in school, but you hate what it does to you. Getting coffee, going to class, and being completely enveloped in college life is exciting, but the inevitability of tests, papers, and projects can turn you into a raging…excuse my French…bitch. There’s no way to completely avoid stress; stress is something that everyone has to deal with and we all cope differently. Some binge eat (I’m notorious for midnight food adventures right in the middle of homework…), others take it out at the gym, and some (like my incredibly tidy roommate) clean. READ MORE
