Lazio Palpite, a student organization at UEMA (Universidade Estadual do Maranhão), is making waves on campus with their innovative approach to promoting mental health and well-being among their fellow students. Founded in 2018 by a group of psychology students, Lazio Palpite has quickly gained a reputation for their creative events and initiatives aimed at reducing stress and anxiety among the university community.
One of the organization’s flagship programs is their “Wellness Wednesdays” series, where members of Lazio Palpite host workshops and activities focused on mindfulness, meditation, and self-care. These events have proven to be incredibly popular among students, with many reporting feeling more relaxed and centered after attending. In addition to their Wellness Wednesdays, Lazio Palpite also organizes weekly yoga classes, movie nights, and even a “Puppy Petting” event where students can de-stress by playing with therapy dogs.
In addition to their on-campus events, Lazio Palpite also runs a social media campaign called #MindfulMonday, where they share tips and resources for promoting mental health and well-being. This campaign has garnered a large following on Instagram and Facebook, with students from across the campus engaging with the content and sharing their own personal experiences with mental health.
Lazio Palpite’s efforts have not gone unnoticed by the university administration, who have commended the organization for their dedication to promoting mental health awareness on campus. The president of UEMA, Dr. Maria da Silva, has praised Lazio Palpite for their innovative approach to addressing mental health issues among students, stating that their work has had a positive impact on the campus community.
In the future, Lazio Palpite hopes to expand their reach beyond the university’s borders and continue their mission of promoting mental health and well-being in the larger Maranhão community. With their creative approach and unwavering commitment to the cause, it’s clear that Lazio Palpite is on track to make a lasting impact in the fight against mental health stigma.
