SWC Wellbeing Themes

Winter 2026

Winter of Intention: Time & Energy

This season, our wellbeing theme is A Winter of Intention: Time & Energy—an invitation to slow down, reflect, and reclaim space for what truly matters: joy, balance, presence, and focus.

At the heart of this theme is boundary-setting. The boundaries we hold and create shape how we care for ourselves and how we show up for others. By honoring our physical, emotional, relational, and energetic needs, we can move through the term with greater clarity and intention.

As we connect with what we need and act with care, we gift ourselves something invaluable: more time and energy for the things that nourish us most. We're excited to explore this together and support you throughout the term.
 

For more on this theme, stay tuned to our weekly newsletter and Insta account for weekly resources, tips, and reflections.

Use these journaling prompts, based on our SWC Wellbeing Themes, as a way to pause and reflect on your past journey, present focus, and future intentions. Integrate these into a journaling practice or simply pause to consider your responses. 

Take 5–10 minutes and write freely—without judgment and pause.

 As you enter this season of intention, where would you most like to place your time, attention, and energy on (think less about "shoulds" and more about what matters most to you!).
