The Stress Free Zone
A Space Dedicated to Student Self-Care & Stress Reduction
Our location in the William Pitt Union, surrounded by food stations and busy students, may not seem like an ideal place to relax. How can you be expected to find some inner calm with people walking around, talking, and making noise, right outside the door?
But being able to relax in a place like this is exactly what we hope to teach you, because the college atmosphere--sometimes lively, sometimes overwhelming--is the environment you live in.
If you can learn to become aware, centered, and relaxed in the SFZ environment, then we hope you will be able to take these skills into other challenging situations:
- Your dorm or apartment, when anxious thoughts are keeping you awake.
- During an exam, when your mind is spinning with input.
- Your relationships, when you're about to lose patience with someone you love.
