Vireo, which translates to cultivating growth, is a two-part workshop series open to all members that will equip them with the necessary skills for the immersion activities, making it a prerequisite for involvement in all Psyche-led immersions. It will be held every semester and will focus on topics like mindful communication and self-expression.
Stay tuned for this year's Vireo!
"I'd say that applying for Vireo is an opportunity to see your own advocacies and passions come alive. Vireo, from our own context, equates to growth from within -- and is something that's really left up to the discretion of whoever handles the project to decide on their own interpretation of the word. As a member of Ateneo Psyche, an organization rooted in mental health awareness, psychological knowledge, and community development, joining Vireo is an opportune way for you to connect with the rest of your org mates and the greater mental health community in the Philippines. In AY 2122 we were able to impart self-help and sensitivity skills which the members were able to benefit from in their respective contexts, for the succeeding AYs, the message and impact that Vireo will bring is left up to you. There's so much potential that this project holds, and if this is something that's calling you, don't hold back and take this opportunity to grow and help others grow as well."
