It’s a busy, loud world and being mindful can help manage the chaos.

Mindfulness means paying attention in a particular way—on purpose, in the moment, and non-judgmentally. During this class, students will learn and practice various mindfulness and meditation techniques that can help improve sleep; reduce stress and anxiety; improve focus, work performance, and eating behaviors; and contribute to a greater sense of well-being and happiness. Mindfulness is a skill that takes practice to learn and hone—which is exactly what this four-week workshop is designed to do.

This course meets once a week for four weeks (June 3, 10, 17, and 24), and each session is 60 minutes. Attendance at all four sessions is advised. Registration is available online.
