Getting Started & Logistics  

• What is the Mindful Map?  
  It’s a semester-long program designed to help you build quick, manageable mindfulness habits. Think of it like a cafe rewards card, but for your mental well-being! Attend events, earn stamps, and win prizes.  

• Where do I pick up a physical Mindful Map?  
  You can grab your map from any of the stamp opportunities outlined for the program. See above!

• Does it cost anything to participate?  
  Nope! The map and all associated events are 100% free for students.  

Earning Stamps  

• How do I earn a stamp?  
  Look out for eligible events hosted by the Holistic Huskies, SHaW Mental Health, or HBL (like Mindfulness Drop-ins or tabling events). Show up, participate, and ask the staff member at the end of your participation to stamp your map.  

• What happens if I lose my map? Do my stamps carry over?  

Your physical map is your only record of participation. Keep it somewhere safe, like your backpack or wallet! The only other way to have a record of your participation is to take frequent pictures of it’s progress with your name clearly written on your map. With qualifying images of the maps, lost maps can have their stamps replaced retroactively by SHaW’s Mental Well-being Program Manager in Wilson Hall.

Prizes & Rewards  

• What are the prizes?  
  See above!

• Do I have to fill out the entire map to get a prize?  
  No! The program uses a tiered system. You can cash in your map partially completed for Tier 1, 2, or 3. When you complete the full map and earn Tier 3, you can enter the raffle to win the Grand Prize.

• How do I actually claim my prize?  
  Take your stamped map to the Holistic Huskies Office, Wilson Hall Rm 104 or email a picture of your completed map to wellness@uconn.edu with your name and the tier you’re applying for. Before receiving the prize, you’ll just need to fill out a quick, post-activity questionnaire to tell us how the program worked for you. Pick up your prize(s) from the Holistic Huskies Office, Wilson Hall Rm 104. Bring your UConn ID.
