“I decided to come to this event because it’s been a stressful week and just got to go and release it,” senior Kelsey Booker explained. “It was a good way to make more friends.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Yoga is a good way to relieve from stress,” said senior Bre’asia Caffie. “It’s been a stressful week with classes and everything and I feel it’s good for mental health.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Crosby, the event also offered a safe space for women to share personal details with others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“It’s really healthy for us to be able to have a safe space to come and be able to talk about personal things or just girl talk in general. Just to be able to have a community of people that you can talk to is very important. Because we in college, some people may be struggling. You never know what everybody’s going through so I think it’s really important to open up a safe space for people to come and be able to make friends.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Booker told TrojanVision the event was also a way to try new things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
