“This is the Way to Wellness” is a new, monthly faculty wellness professional development series intended to enhance campus well-being by sparking conversations on topics such as positive psychology, wellness-based teaching practices, and the science of happiness. Each session will be facilitated by Kelly D. Holder, PhD, and will include a brief introduction to a foundational concept followed by facilitated discussion amongst faculty peers. 

The third session is “The Impact of Social Media on Well-Being.” Social media facilitates the sharing of ideas, thoughts, and information through the building of virtual networks and communities.  The way we use social media; however, impacts our overall wellness.  This session will focus on how we use social media.  We’ll explore the benefits and ways to improve engagement, and ways we want to improve our relationship with social media.

By participating in each session, participants will be able to better understand foundational concepts in positive psychology and well-being theory, which may then be applied personally and professionally. Explore the relationship between human connection and well-being through experiential peer mentorship.

Please note that this course is designed to be engaging for all participants. Attendees are encouraged to turn on their cameras and actively participate in the program.

Attendance at previous sessions is not required for participation!
