Working With Your Brain: Compassionate Strategies for Focus and Follow-Through

On Thursday, November 20th, from 1-1:50 PM in Kresge 502, we welcome all members of the Harvard community to join us for a well-being workshop led by Center Student Engagement Committee member Kris Berg, MPH ’26.
This workshop will explore how stress, guilt, and unrealistic expectations exacerbate executive dysfunction, making it difficult to start or complete tasks. Participants will learn compassionate, neurodiversity-affirming strategies to work with their brains to reduce overwhelm, increase focus, and build sustainable motivation. Fidget toys provided.
