View a recording of the presentation.

The University of Alberta's Office of the Dean of Students, in partnership with Human Resource Services and Campus and Community Recreation, invites you to the Build a STRONGER Brain Motivational Workshop. All U of A students, faculty and staff are welcome to attend.

In light of recent world events and the pandemic, many of us are struggling to maintain positive mental health. Together, Olympic gold and bronze medalist, Carol Huynh, and mental health therapist, Monique Smith, tackle this concern in their virtual presentation: How to Build a S.T.R.O.N.Ger Brain: A Game Plan for Healthy Decision-Making.

Incorporating storytelling, teaching, wrestling demos, and multimedia, Carol and Monique bring audience members on an engaging virtual tour of the mind, teaching HOW decisions are made as well as giving practical SKILLS  for healthy decision-making.

This video project highlights a range of strategies, services, and supports available to our campus community, and explores the unique mental health experiences of our campus community members.
