You Look Like Me & Campus Partners Host Relax, Relief & Reset Wellness Experience for JSU Students
On October 15, You Look Like Me (YLM) collaborated with the Delta Delta Chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc., Miss Blue Streak, and Blissway Yoga to host Relax, Relief, & Reset a restorative wellness experience designed to help Jackson State University students unwind following homecoming and recover after midterms.
Students gathered in a calm, supportive environment to breathe, reflect, and refocus. After an intense stretch of campus events and academic demands, this event provided a meaningful opportunity for students to recharge and prioritize mental well-being.
What is YLM?
YLM, short for You Look Like Me, is a Jackson based nonprofit committed to empowering high school and college students through mentorship, exposure, and personal development. The organization reminds young people that while success is real and reachable mental resets are imperative especially when they see it in those who look like them.
The Relax, Relief & Reset experience embodied that mission by emphasizing the importance of caring for both the mind and heart on the path to personal and academic achievement.
A Space for Healing & Resetting
The wellness event featured:
* Guided mindfulness and relaxation practices led by Blissway Yoga
* Meditation and breathing exercises to release stress
* Encouraging mental-wellness dialogue
* A peaceful environment designed for rest and reflection
Students were encouraged to slow down, let go of tension, and mentally reset after a demanding period on campus.
Campus Leadership & Encouragement
Special guest Miss Senior for Jackson State University, Maddi Perry, joined the event as a speaker. Perry shared inspiring and heartfelt remarks on the importance of prioritizing mental health, embracing self-care, and seeking support when navigating the pressures of college life.
Her message served as a reminder that wellness is not a luxury it is a necessity, especially for student leaders and scholars.
Community Support in Action
Through a strong partnership between You Look Like Me, the Delta Delta Chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi, Miss Blue Streak, and Blissway Yoga, students experienced a powerful moment of calm, connection, and affirmation.
Relax, Relief & Reset wasn’t just a break it was a commitment to student wellness and community care.
As You Look Like Me continues fostering empowerment and opportunity, events like these remind students:
“You look like me and you deserve rest, resilience, and balance.”
