In order to improve the mental health level of international students and understand the ideological trends of international students during the relatively closed management period, the International Student Mental Health Education Center of the School of International Education held a series of psychological counseling activities on April 15-18.

The activities set up psychological measurement, "regulating emotions and releasing stress" group coaching, "discovering yourself" sand table experience, and "releasing stress and starting again" catharsis experience activities.

The college adopted UPI scale of Personality Health Test for College Students to take psychological measure for 31 international students in the school, checked hidden dangers in time, and talked and intervened with students in depression.

In the group tutoring session of "regulating emotions and releasing pressure", some small activities such as "heavy wind blowing", "Dragon Oath", "beatback hug" and "complaining about you and me" were set up. Through these activities, international students participated in it and felt the warmth from the team and the collective, and everyone's face was full of happiness and satisfaction.

Katine from Tanzania said, "The activity was fun and exciting I felt good and it was something different that I had not experienced for a long time. I wish to do it more often." Leemah from Nigeria said, "I haven’t had fun activity in awhile, having the activity was exciting. The activity helped me in relieving academics stress, it was perfect timing." Samia from Pakistan said, "Our kind teachers helped us ease our stress by playing exciting games with us and helping us in a friendly and helpful way. I learned to play a new game and enjoyed myself a lot with my fellow students. I am thankful for the teachers who help us and take care of us."

 The students walked into the sand table room, used sand tools on the sand table, some created their dream world, and some looked for self-solved solutions. In the catharsis room, the students released stress and anxiety. At the end of the activity, the students sorted out their mood and set out again. As long as teachers and students work together, we will overcome the epidemic and have a better tomorrow!
