Wellness at Lakeland
Lakeland is dedicated to helping students become successful, not only in achieving their educational goals, but also in maintaining their own well-being.
Relaxation Zones on Campus
Lakeland has created two indoor and two outdoor relaxation zones where students can unwind, de-stress, engage in arts and crafts activities, meditate, and explore wellness apps. The indoor relaxation zones are located in A-2110 and the Lakeland Library. Outdoor relaxation zones are located near the Mindladders sculpture outside Breakers and in the main campus courtyard under the trees.
Other existing wellness zones at Lakeland include the Athletic and Fitness Center, Lakeland Cares Cupboard, H-building third floor greenhouse and rooftop garden, and Mooreland gardens, to name a few. Take some time to explore spaces on Lakelands campus that can contribute to your wellness.
We can all benefit from wellness activities every day, especially during stressful times. Lakeland students are invited to access our online guide that offers a wide range of mental health and resilience information and resources. This collection of reliable and helpful websites and videos was compiled and created by Lakeland's Mental Health Task Force.
