Calm Premium Access for UC Merced Students, Staff, and Faculty
Individual and community well-being is essential as we work through the COVID-19 pandemic and its significant impact on our professional and personal lives.
In the pursuit of helping all members of the campus community maintain positive self-care, we have purchased a license that will allow every student, staff, and faculty member to enjoy a free subscription to Calm, the #1 sleep and meditation app. We invite you to explore the Calm features as a resource to practice mindfulness to reduce anxiety and stress, improve sleep and focus, and enhance academic and workplace productivity and performance.
