Calm has partnered with Graduate by Hilton this back-to-school season to help students (and parents) reduce anxiety, sleep more soundly, and start the semester with intention.

Back-to-school season can mean a lot of things: the excitement of new classes, game weekends, your favorite friends and clubs. But the transition can also be stressful. We get it. It’s navigating a new roommate. Balancing a heavy course load. Figuring out the future or missing home.

And if you’re a parent, it’s not necessarily any easier. Maybe you’re also nervous about their new roommate or heavy course load, not to mention your own empty nest.

Whatever you’re feeling, we’re here to help. That’s why we’ve partnered with Graduate by Hilton, the ultimate stay in your favorite college towns, to support you all—mentally, emotionally, and physically—at the start of this new school year.

We’ve put together a special content collection for students, while identifying particular programs for parents. And we’re offering access in two unique ways: a 1-month free trial of Calm and a family plan that you just can’t beat.

For students

For parents

Ways to give you (and your whole family) space to breathe

This chapter might seem like theirs, but it's yours too. New roommates for them might mean new feelings for you. All-nighters for them might mean sleepless nights for you too. And it may be impossible to stay chill when you’re three check-in texts deep and all you see is 💬.

Whether you’re anxious for them, anxious for yourself, or just uncertain about what the future holds, we can help.

Here’s how we can support you:

💙 Manage your stress & anxiety with these mindful tools

💙 Learn the incredible benefits of mindfulness with this meditation program for beginners

💙 Take an express train to dreamland with this collection of Sleep Stories, meditations, music, and soundscapes
