Indigenous Student Wellness Day

On April 3, Gdoo-maawnjidimi Mompii Indigenous Student Services (GMISS) hosted its fourth annual Indigenous Student Wellness Day. All Indigenous students, faculty or staff (or those who identify by nation or community) from any post-secondary institution across Turtle Island were welcome to attend.
2025 theme: Choosing Your Health & Wellness Adventure
This year’s theme is “Choose Your Wellness Adventure.” Participants will have a variety of activities to choose from as we try to find our way to balance and wellness, including yoga, puppy therapy, making sweet grass braids and wellness bundles, card reading and chair massages.
GMISS invites Indigenous students, faculty and staff at TMU to join us for a day of health and wellness activities, including a traditional lunch, making wellness bundles, drumming and more.
