Description

The Counseling Center is excited to offer a 9 week drop-in workshop series called Mindful Mondays!  There are 3 main themes (Body Awakening, Internal Experiences and Responding Differently) with different exercises practiced each week.  The workshops start on February 27th and will be completed on May 1st.  You can come to as many, or as few, as you would like.

Mindfulness refers to the ability to be aware of your thoughts, emotions, physical sensations, and actions, in the present moment, without judging or criticizing yourself or your experience.  We hope you can take time out of your busy schedule to slow down, pay attention to your present moment experiences, and continue in the direction of the things you find important in your life! 

Weekly Structure

         Brief opening meditation

         Reflection about a selected mindfulness quote

         Practice of a particular mindfulness skill or meditation, followed by a brief reflection

         Discussion about a selected metaphor or teaching point

         Brief closing meditation

Come to as many or as few as you would like.  Keep in mind that the greatest benefits from mindfulness come with continued practice.  If you are a few minutes late, please still come!  Just be sure to enter quietly in order to minimize disruption.  All materials are provided.
