Times of change can be challenging. Whether you are adjusting to a new season, the end of a semester, or a transition in your life, you might feel unmoored, disoriented, and low. In this workshop, Dr. Hala Alyan and Prof. Yael Shy will guide you through a series of writing and mindfulness exercises to support your nervous system in the midst of upheaval, to help you tap into your inner wisdom and clarity, and to connect you to yourself and others so that you can move through this season with more ease. Be sure to have a pen and a notebook handy to get the most benefit from the exercises!

Stepping into the vibrant, often complex world of a university student can raise profound questions about faith, identity, and purpose. The NYU Islamic Center Podcasts, presented by the Islamic Center at New York University, creates a thoughtful space to explore these intersections. Rather than offering simple answers, these conversations delve into the rich tapestry of Islamic thought, connecting timeless spiritual knowledge with the realities of contemporary life. You'll hear discussions that feel both grounded and immediate, where scholars, community leaders, and students themselves reflect on how faith informs everything from personal ethics to engaging with current events. This isn't a lecture series, but a dynamic dialogue meant to accompany you. Each episode invites reflection, offering perspectives that are both intellectually rigorous and deeply personal, all stemming from the unique environment of NYU's diverse community. Tune into this podcast for a sincere and nuanced exploration of spirituality that acknowledges the questions of modern life while drawing from a well of ancient wisdom.
