Individual Meditation Sessions
Students who have paid the health fee may make an individual meditation appointment with a Wellness Educator/Counselor. Each session is geared toward beginning meditation practice and lasts 20-25 minutes.
During the first session, the Wellness Educator/Counselor will talk with you about your interest in meditation and how it may be helpful for you at this point in time. You will be guided into relaxation, beginning with a focus on your breathing. Other techniques include guided imagery, progressive muscle relaxation or creative visualization. Sometimes, you might be asked to think of a mantra, a word or phrase that you repeat to yourself that helps bring focus and clarity to your meditation.
