Social wellness involves building and maintaining a diverse network of supportive relationships and dealing effectively with interpersonal conflict.
Ways to work on social well-being:
- Self-assess how you can be a better friend, partner, family member or loved one
- Reflect on your social network, evaluating if your relationships support your values, beliefs and general well-being
- Identify faculty/staff who are members of your support network
- Step outside of your comfort zone and get to know new people by engaging in campus activities
- Unplug from social media when in the presence of others
