Mood Walks for Campus is an initiative that encourages physical activity as a way to improve both physical and mental health. This free, flexible and fun opportunity is open to all students, staff and faculty at the University of Guelph-Humber and Humber College. An increasing body of evidence suggests that one of the best ways to improve well-being is by simply spending more time outdoors. Spending time in nature has been shown to reduce stress, improve concentration, and bolster creative problem-solving.

The initiative includes six themed Mood Walks at the Humber Arboretum including a Chickadee Feeding Mood Walk on Wednesday, December 19 at noon. On this walk, you'll have the opportunity to try to hand-feed chickadees with an experienced guide. 

No registration is required - simply meet at the Centre for Urban Ecology to take part. (The Humber Arboretum is located at the back of North Campus; the CUE is the glass building with the red door at the top of the path).
