MED2028 (SENT ON BEHALF OF DR. KAUSHAL NANAVATI) -- Weekly Wellness PEARL

[Barbara Glover]

Good morning,

Each weekly message includes a technique that can support your well-being and is grounded in scientific evidence and practical application.  Incorporating these strategies into your daily routine can significantly enhance your overall health and wellness.

Peer Support Groups

  *   Scientific Evidence: Engaging in peer support reduces feelings of isolation and promotes mental well-being.
     *   Reference: Suls, J., & Fletcher, B. (1985). The relative efficacy of social support and social comparison in coping with stress: A theoretical perspective. Journal of Social and Clinical Psychology, 3(1), 46-61.
  *   Daily Implementation:
     *   Join or form a study group for shared learning experiences.
     *   Schedule regular meetings with peers to discuss stressors.
     *   Participate in wellness workshops offered by your institution.

Have a great day!
