Join us for an evening to learn about mental health!
Welcome to the Calm Lab 🧪✨ — a relaxed, feel-good event designed to help you reset, recharge and have a little fun along the way. Instead of a “mad scientist” vibe, expect a calm, cosy space with simple activities that help you feel lighter and more grounded.
You’ll move through different stations: a 90-second Hug Corner (with a teddy or a friend), an Ice Reset station to help cool down overwhelming moments, a quick Mood Boost table with sour sweets and mini movement challenges to get your energy flowing, and the Worry Destroyer 6000 — where you can write down a worry and shred it for good. There’ll also be brain-boosting, gut-friendly snacks provided throughout 🍎🍫.
You’ll receive a small take-home “Lab Report” explaining each activity in an easy, practical way so you can try them again whenever you need. Expect warmth, laughter, a bit of chaos (the good kind), and simple tools to help you feel just a little bit better. Come curious, leave lighter 💛
Please note - you must be a resident of Furzedown Student Village or Cedars Halls or signed in by a resident to sign up/attend this event.
