HSL Reading Nook Display

Health Sciences Library's reading nook currently offers a print book display on caring for oneself. An HSL staff member curated the display explaining, "I wanted to put together a display to ring in the new year, and that tends to mean trying to reset my intentions. Self-love always feels like a great place to start with that!"

A few of the books available to check out:

  Every Body Yoga: Let Go of Fear, Get on the Mat, Love your Body.  ...she brings her body-positive, emotionally uplifting approach to yoga in a book that will help every reader discover the power of yoga and how to weave it seamlessly into his or her life.

  How People Matter: Why it Affects Health, Happiness, Love, Work and Society. Mattering, which is about feeling valued and adding value, is essential for heath, happiness, love, work, and social well-being.

  Luisa: Now and Then.  At 32, Luisa encounters her 15-year-old self in this sensitive, bold story about self-acceptance and sexuality.

Though the days are getting longer, winter is still with us. HSL has a couple of resources to help combat the winter blues.

• Health & Wellness at UW. A library guide intended to point you to specific campus resources for community-building, mental health and safety.
• Light Therapy Lamps. Ask at HSL's Information Desk to check out one of hour happy lamps, available for use in library.
