From stress to clarity
Each month, as part of BISLA’s support system for new students, our mentors participate in workshops led by our coach and former sociology instructor, Danka Ahern. 
These sessions equip mentors with valuable knowledge and skills to foster a welcoming and safe environment for you, our future students.
However, we are all human beings, sometimes under academic pressure, so instead of hosting regular workshops, Danka suggested to host a panel focusing on how strong our thoughts can be in shaping our reality, sometimes leading to unnecessary worry and self-doubt. Through guided activities and reflections, we discovered that things may not be as challenging as they seem. Plus, we received a gratitude journal to help us stay grounded and focused on the positive sides
.
.It was an eye-opening experience that reminded us how small shifts in perspective can transform how we approach our emotions and challenges.
Big thanks to @jadudova (Mentorship Program Coordinator) for organizing such a great event
