On December 3rd, I attended the Stress Relief Workshop in the multi-purpose room of the Vertical Campus. I went there during club hours. The workshop counted as a global community Awareness workshop because it let us experience the diversity at Baruch. Not only was there a variety of different food, but there were also very diverse students with whom I got to interact with. The goal of the workshop was to relieve one’s stress with a series of board games, massages, video games, food, and human interaction. There was good entertaining music in the background as well as smoothies being served. With finals right around the corner, I have started studying and feel quite stressed out. By attending this workshop, I was able to relieve some of my stress and just hang out with friends. I ended up playing scramble with a few friends. I selected this workshop because it was more like a hang-out area where we could just relax, as opposed to the other workshops. This workshop met all my expectations and more, I went to it fearing that it would not be enough to help me relax, but it was quite the opposite I came out of it with a smile and felt stress-free. I learned many techniques with which to relieve my stress during this workshop and recommend it to everyone since finals are coming up. If I had the chance, I would go to it one more time. It was truly a worth-while experience.
