Michigan’s Stay Well program was launched at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic to provide Michiganders with services and resources to help them cope with pandemic-related anxiety and/or distress. As new COVID-19 variants emerge, new stressors may develop or old stressors may remain – there are simple “grounding exercises” that can help you, in the moment, to re-focus and calm yourself.

As part of Stay Well’s new ‘Create your Calm ’ campaign, they are making available a few items – stickers, magnets, and posters - to remind you and your employees of these grounding exercises that can be done anytime, wherever you are.

Please use the order form attached to select how many Create Your Calm stickers, magnets, posters, or brochures you would like to order for your organization. These materials are available for free and will be shipped at no cost to your location.

Please send completed order forms to WallaceE3@michigan.gov.
