14|06|2022 Eco-Anxiety workshop

 

It can be quite difficult to grasp what it truly means that our climate is changing. Actions need to be taken on a global scale to slow down the change and halt it. But during everyday life, nothing seems to be out of the ordinary. 

 

If you've ever wondered or had doubts about your future because of climate change, this is for you. We teamed up with TGD and Green Week TU/e  to create a unique workshop to help you with anxiety or apathy due to climate change.

We'll look at ways of dealing with the stress and pressure you can experience if you are taking action, to avoid burnout!

Come join a free picknick together with Ichthus and TINT, where there is room for interesting conversations about values in life. Bring your friends for this nice lunch and conversation opportunity!

 

With a card game that includes more than 40 values you can use to describe your goals, drive and passion you can start the discussion with others, searching which values you have in common and which ones make you unique.

 

And all that while enjoying a nice (hopefully sunny) picknick.

23|05|2023 The Power of Words

 Nowadays, it seems very easy to get in trouble for something one says, so it's natural to feel uncertain or confused about the difference between freedom of expression and hate speech. Society is always in ongoing change, but there are certain habits that can help you understand this important difference. 

 

Our program manager, Kimberly, has recently attended an European training on this topic and she is excited to share her knowledge with the students of Eindhoven.

 

Explore how to communicate your opinions effectively and safely. Learn to recognize and deal with hate speech better and understand the impact it has on others. Delve into how to express yourself freely while respecting the rights and dignity of others.


16|05|2023 Show Yourself to the World

 Reflect on your personal traits and find more comfort in your own shoes.

 

It's interesting how much effort we usually put into showing a perfect image of ourselves to the world. At the same time it takes a lot of energy to push those elements of ourselves away that we'd rather like to hide. Giving space to being yourself brings 'space to breath', pleasure, relaxation and in the end it also makes you stronger.

 

The workshop given by our life coach Margit van Tuijl will help you free yourself from all the expectations you try to fulfill. The workshop is given in complete confidence and is a safe space for you to explore your personal traits.

 

Sign up below to secure a spot for yourself! There are only 15 spots for this workshop.

09|05|2023 Explore Your Biases with Sunny Bargman

Are you really as open-minded as you think you are? The once very stereotypical ‘technical student’ or ‘STEM employee’ is nowadays way more diverse, but do all these different personalities feel welcome in our TU/e community? With documentary maker, critical thinker, and activist Sunny Bergman, we will discuss her work in which stereotypes and judging ‘the other’ are a regular focus. She invites you to take a critical look at your own views and biases towards your peers. Together we will explore how to put an open attitude into practice.

 

This program is jointly organized by TINT and Studium Generale.

21|03|2023 Love Around the World [cancelled]

 

All people, all over the world experience love.

However, not everyone treats it in the same way. Cultures have different traditions and habits around the topic of love.

 

 

TINT and Cosmos will bring you an event to explore how love is interpreted across the globe, to dive into how to communicate about your needs and wishes, and how to be less confused with different conceptions!

 

Love is taken on its broader sense, so it can be romantic relationships but also friendships and family ties!

 

Don’t forget to bring your own (anonymous) questions, as we also want to hear what’s on your mind.

 

This event is part of the Dutch Happiness Week 2023, an initiative founded by Fontys University & Parktheater Eindhoven, that aims to raise awareness and promote happiness by collaborating with several partners for a week full of inspiring activities. Find the programe here.

14|03|2023 Financial Wellbeing

 “Just cut your spendings and make more money” is what we’ve all heard already. But we all know that that advice is not of any help. 

 

Instead are you interested in learning methods that are actually helpful for dealing with the little money you have? Join us in this collaboration with B&R where you can get actually helpful tips and guidance from the experts at B&R to step up your finance game.

 

Besides, we understand that most students have to deal with lending money which can be pretty stressful. That is why with our life coach, Laura Curta, help you will have the opportunity to discover your guiding values regarding money.

06|03|2023 Plan(t) Your Future

 

The workshop ‘Plan(t) your future’ aims to give that moment to reflect about your life with a nature metaphor: to think about your life as a tree. Weird?! Just trust TINT ;) 

 

Humans are living beings like trees, so to grow tall and strong, we all need roots like the past experiences and relationships that made who we are now. While growing, a tree can be shaped by pruning to let the branches grow into the sky. In the same way, the choices that we make in our present moment influence our direction towards the future.  

 

Personal growth is a process influenced by your past, that you control in your present, to achieve your dreams in the future. For this whole process you can count with the smooth guidance of TINT life coach, Margit van Tuijl, every step of the way. 

 

Join this workshop and plan(t) the next steps for your future. This workshop is part of the Vitality Week program.
