Stress Less, Color More

Mon, Dec 8, 2025 9am to 5pm

BGSU Firelands, Falcon Square, North Building

  Need a break? Campus Engagement & Student Life wants to help make exam week a little easier for students by taking a break to destress with coloring. Coloring helps reduce stress by calming the brain and activating different parts of the cerebral hemispheres, leading to a meditative and mindful state. This can decrease anxiety, lower heart rate and respiration, improve sleep, and reduce physical tension. It provides a low-pressure, screen-free activity that distracts from worries, stimulates creativity, and is an inexpensive way to relax.    Join us for a relaxing, creative, and informal day that is dedicated to mindfulness and stress relief through coloring. We'll provide a variety of coloring pages, pencils, markers and even some meditative music. No artistic experience required- just a willingness to relax!
