Pets relieve stress. Possible application for WildWood

I am reading an article by the Dartmouth Undergraduate Journal of Science on the effects of Cortisol on the body and a contrast of the effects of short term and long term stress on the hippocampus and immune system. I have to find a way to reduce stress at Wildwood, possibly through meditation which has been shown to lower stress levels. Advisories in the future should hold mandatory meditation sessions before students go to their first class of the day as they will be more mindful, awake, and ready to study.
