Summary
This project has been designed as a resource for students at UBC to lower stress and anxiety while promoting health and well-being. The aim is to create a set of strategically placed signs that guide the user on a mindfulness walk. It builds off another project by students in the SEED program. They originally came up with five different 30-45 minute walks that can be done around campus. This project identified ideal stops on the route where signs could be placed.
