This February, we encourage you to work on the most important relationship you can have in your lifetime: The Relationship with Yourself. 

The way you feel, think and perform each day is part of this relationship. When you feel good, it shows – at work, in your relationships with colleagues, friends, and family members and everywhere else in your life too.

MindWell has put together new class themes and programs that will help you develop this positive, healthy relationship with yourself.

These programs include:

  • The 4 Aspects of Love
  • Making Difficult Conversations Easier
  • Meaningful Breaks through Movement 
  • Tai Chi: Reduce Stress & Increase Mobility

All workshops and classes are free to Red River College Polytechnic faculty, staff and students. Sign up for a Free MindWell Account to access and find a class that is right for you.


Making Difficult Conversations Easier

Conversations with colleagues or loved ones can feel difficult when you know the person might not like what you have to say. Unfortunately, difficult conversations are a part of life. 

Join Coach Jackie every Monday in February to learn how to apply the skill of mindfulness and compassionate communication to make those difficult conversations easier.

Mondays at noon (virtual)

The 4 Aspects of Love

When most people hear the word ‘love’, they automatically think about ‘intimate’ love – the love you have for a romantic partner. However, there are actually 4 types of love: Intimate, Self, Family/Friend and Universal love. 

Join Ross each Friday in February to discover how to deepen your capacity to give and receive love in all areas.

Fridays at 11:00am (virtual)
