For World Contraception Day, the Health & Wellness Center and Health Advancement & Prevention Strategies office is hosting the first Wellness Wednesday on contraception education, information and options available to students here at Lehigh, and what that process looks like, and/or in the local community. We will also touch on PrEP for PrEP Awareness Week - what options are available to you on campus and what that process looks like.
This session is open to all Lehigh students who are interested in learning more about this topic and what options are available to you, and will also count as a 5x10 for first-year students in the Self Concept Foundation category to be aware of the services and resources available to you in order for you to make informed decisions based on your needs.
Food will be provided.

Trauma-informed yoga is a research proven way to help survivors of sexual trauma and those experiencing vicarious and secondary trauma heal from their trauma symptoms. It is a combination of focused breathing and mindfulness skills, as well as healing poses. Trauma-informed yoga is an opportunity to learn how to work with your own discomforts. It is a judgment free zone where every participant is able to go at their own pace and skill level. The practice is not meant to be a high cardio or strength training workout, it focuses on grounding, breathing, and mindfulness with comfortable, stretching poses.
Our instructor, Liz Jordon, is certified in trauma-informed practice. The instructor does not leave her own mat and will never touch participants to adjust their pose throughout the practice. It is a space where your body is entirely yours.
Students, faculty, and staff of all gender identities at all levels of healing from primary, secondary, and vicarious trauma are welcome and can benefit from trauma-informed yoga.
