With finals ahead, as well as many holiday celebrations coming up, many of us experience stress in December. The library has ideas FOR you, and needs ideas FROM you.
This week, the library will have on display objects -- and books! -- to give you ideas for how to cope with stress. The library café offers great coffees and teas and juices and will have board games to play, to give yourself a little study break. Plus, we also have a Wii console available.
On Wednesday December 3rd, you can experience some of these techniques at the annual PROJECT HOPE (Helping Others through Peer Education) DE-STRESS FEST!
On the West Campus from 11 a.m. - 1:30 p.m. for a free chair massage, outdoor yoga, meditation, information about the effects of study drugs, and resources on campus that can help you succeed in your classes. Participation prizes include free kayaking and paddle board rentals, movie tickets, Borders gift cards, and De-Stress goody bag
kits.
Also, the Personal Counseling Office at SBCC offers an online stress "test" to help you understand your own coping:
The Library Director, Kenley Neufeld, typically offers Mediation in the Library on Thursday mornings from 11:30-11:50. All are welcome to participate.
Finally, send a text or video comment to this posting with YOUR ideas for healthy de-stressing, to help others. Or leave a written idea inside the library.
