  • Support implementation of mindfulness based / contemplative educational practices in academic curricula and staff development programs.

Each workshop follows a similar structure approximately 10 minutes of content/ research review; 20 minutes of self-care practice/ exercise(s) and 45 minutes for discussion and dialogue about your self-care progress.  Resource handouts will be provided.
