Mindfulness Building Blocks is the first course in the four-module Mindfulness for Resiliency Program. Over the course of four, one-hour group classes, mindfulness facilitators from the Centre for Mindfulness Studies will teach you about the basic concepts and principles of mindfulness. You'll learn how to use a mindful practice to identify thoughts, emotions and body sensations, and tools to help regulate your attention. Sessions will offer group discussion, small group work, meditation and reflective activities.
These sessions are part of the Mindful Campus Initiative, a new program at Concordia to support post-secondary students pursuing a creative education. These courses are open to students at Concordia across all faculties. We look forward to seeing you there!
