  During Disconnect to Connect and Wellness Week, join the campaign to cut back on your internet and electronics usage and connect more with nature and those around you. Here are some ideas for the week to get you started:

  • Try to check your Facebook and Twitter only once daily, or pick one or two days where you don't check them at all
  • Get outside for five minutes each day, and during this time don't check your phone.
  • Join the cell phone-free walk through the Loyalist arboretum (date and time TBC)
  • Unplug in any way you can (try giving up TV for the week, or make another electronics-free goal)
  • Join in the outdoor Smudging ceremony to take place on Tuesday, October 21 from 10 - 11 am (meet in the Aboriginal Resource Centre - Loyalist College)
  • Encourage your peers to try any and all of the above mentioned activities as well!
