RELAXATION & ‘CHILL ZONE’:

If a student simply needs to take some time to relax, decompress, and unplug, they may come to the Wellness Center to sit quietly. There are coloring books, fidget toys, Zen Garden sand trays, headphones to listen to calming music, and other relaxation tools to unwind and recenter. Students may stay for 10 minutes to reset, and then return to class, or speak further with a counselor.
