Unplug for one hour on World Mental Health Day Thursday, Oct. 10, from noon to 1pm, and connect in person with those around you. Unplugged Hour encourages everyone to take an hour away from screens, smartphones and technology.
At the Keele campus, the Mental Health Steering Committee at York invites everyone to take an hour and meet at the Bear Pit in Central Square, warm up and go for a walk around Stong Pond. Meet up with colleagues and students and take the opportunity to meet new people on campus.
At Glendon, students, faculty and staff will meet at the Lion’s Den at noon and take a group walk across the campus to enjoy the fall colours and connect with peers and colleagues.It is a chance to remind everyone on World Mental Health Day that “unplugging” is important for mental health and well-being.
