Mindfulness for Life is a course for students wishing to learn mindfulness skills for navigating life's challenges. It can even enhance your capacity for joy and creativity.

Over five weekly sessions, we'll guide you through a range of sitting, walking and movement meditations. Teaching and group discussion will help you apply what you learn in your mindfulness practice to your everyday life.

Most people finishing the course report lasting benefits including:

• increased capacity to relax and stay calm
• greater energy and enthusiasm
• improved ability to cope with stress
• better relationships.

This evidence-based course is taught by experienced mindfulness teachers from the Therapeutic Services team.

Full attendance is expected.
