Want to know what actually makes people happier? This CAPS workshop dives into the science of happiness and gives you practical, research-backed strategies to boost your mood and bounce back from stress. You’ll explore tools like gratitude, focusing on your strengths, and finding your “flow” to help you stay positive—even when life gets messy.

Can’t focus? Constantly juggling a million tabs (literally and mentally)? This CAPS workshop breaks down what ADHD really is—covering attention, executive functioning, and hyperactivity/impulsivity—and how it shows up in everyday college life. We’ll talk about time management, organization, decision-making, and even relationships. You’ll also learn practical strategies like mindfulness and other skills to help you rein in distractions and boost focus. No ADHD diagnosis needed—if you’re curious, you’re welcome!

Feeling the pressure to look a certain way? You’re not alone. In this two-part CAPS workshop, we’ll dig into how beauty standards shape the way we see ourselves, challenge the pressure to “fit the mold,” and build tools for creating a healthier, more positive body image. You’ll get a free workbook to guide you along the way. You must have attended Part 1 on 2/17/26 to attend Part 2 (this workshop). Additional Body Image Workshops will be held in March and April. See link for details.

Does your inner critic need a mute button? In this virtual CAPS workshop, you’ll learn how to quiet that inner critic and swap self-judgment for self-compassion. We’ll practice simple, real-life strategies to handle daily stress with more kindness, and you’ll walk away with your very own personalized Self-Compassion Plan. Come ready to try it out, ask questions, and leave with tools you can actually use.
