Relaxation Station

comfy chairs
textile art
lovely view

The Relaxation Station at The Ames Library provides a quiet space for relaxation, meditation, and stress relief.  Featuring comfy seating, art from our Campus Art Collection, dimmable lights, therapeutic fidgets, and access to the biofeedback software. We hope that the space brings a sense of calm and mindfulness to those who use it. You can book the space by visiting our online reservation site.

Thank you to the donors who supported the Mental Health Support Fund, to our colleagues in the Counseling Center for their conversation and collaboration, and to our colleagues in the Physical Plant for their hard work to bring our vision to life. 

We asked students to write thank you notes to our donors - here's a few!
