[Athen] Mindfulness and Stress Relief Activities

[Heather Mariger via athen-list]

Apologies for the Cross Posting I am casting a wide net on this one...

Greetings,

I have a faculty member who uses some stress relief / mindfulness videos as
part of his curriculum. All of these videos rely heavily on sound (e.g.
soft music - close your eyes, breathe in, breathe out - imagine your body
relaxing from your toes, now your feet, ankles etc...).

While we do have these captioned and transcripts available, having to read
the instructions rather diminishes (negates) the effectiveness of the
activities.

So, I am reaching out for suggestions on ways to make these activities work
for those who are Deaf or Hard of Hearing - and/or to ask for any
suggestions of activities that could be included that don't rely on sound
to be effective. As a fan of UDL, providing options for the students seems
a great idea at any rate.

Any suggestions or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
H.
