Write for Better U – Share Your Insights on Wellbeing

Got insights, experiences, or events that support wellbeing? Share them through Better U and help inspire a healthier, more connected Flinders community.

We want to grow Better U – and we’re looking for contributors to help shape a vibrant, helpful, and inspiring wellbeing blog.

If you’ve got knowledge, ideas, experiences, or events to share in the areas of body (physical health), mind (mental health), spirit (meaning and reflection), or together (social connection), we’d love to hear from you.

Whether you’re a student, staff member, or someone simply passionate about wellbeing, your perspective could help others take meaningful steps toward a healthier, more connected life.

🧠 What kind of content are we looking for?

We’re especially interested in content that’s actionable, reflective, or inspiring. You don’t need to be a professional writer—just someone with something useful to share.

Here are a few types of posts we’re looking for:

✅ Insightful & Practical

Takeaways from a podcast, article, book, or research paper—distilled into clear strategies others can use.
Tips and tools that help you build good habits in areas like sleep, focus, exercise, or relationships.
Advice that blends lived experience with science-backed practices.

🌱 Stories & Initiatives

Are you running a student group that supports wellbeing in unexpected ways?
Have you embedded wellbeing principles into your teaching, workplace, or community?
We’d love to hear about it—and how it’s working.

📣 Events & Happenings

Hosting a wellbeing-oriented event or campaign?
Got a meetup, workshop, or initiative others should know about?
Let us help spread the word.

📚 Topics we’re especially interested in:

Exercise and nutrition advice, especially from experts in the field
Managing finances, especially with current cost-of-living pressures
Mental health content, including how we build emotional resilience and hone our minds for study
Social and relationship wellbeing, a key reason students seek counselling support
Community-based interventions that promote health, inclusion, and belonging
Spiritual health and what it means in a university context
And other topics—wellbeing is always evolving, and we’re open to fresh ideas
