  • Meditation
    • I think the Koru course or Transcendental Meditation (TM) that Jacki mentioned would be a great option for the students if they have the time for the program! If you are wanting to do individual meditation sessions, we can look into finding an instructor with the training and certification to guide us. We also have the Calm app that has meditations lasting 20-30 minutes that could be paired with an activity to deliver some information!
  • Mindfulness walks
    • If we can find a day/time to start a well as finding a route to take. We could look into finding some ADA accessible walking paths so all of our students can be involved. I have lots of ideas for a project like this. We would even be able to combine the mindfulness walk with a short meditation (and its improving physical health).
    • Tabled to spring
  • How to relieve stress
  • Sleep workshop
    • Series of sleep consults (8-10 spots) in Brody and Residence Halls - focus on what you already do and how to make changes to improve sleep - accountability partners
