  • Health Services also offers access to Guided Imagery. Guided imagery is the easiest, most user-friendly form of meditation you can find.  It’s simply listening to words and music that guide you on a positive journey, where you imagine yourself relaxing and doing well, with all your senses.  To try out guided imagery you have these 2 options:

1. Visit us in Room 3150 and borrow a *play-away to listen to in our lobby
2. Check a play-away out for 2 weeks at a time from the library with your ID card

*Playaway devices mean no download or set-up time required and no need for Wi-Fi
