PSYC 337 Introduction to Mindfulness and Meditation (WB)
This course provides an introduction to the psychological construct of “mindfulness” and an experiential training in becoming more mindful in everyday life, such as through the practice of meditation. Students will be exposed to diverse teachings on the subject in order to facilitate their own personal discovery of what it means to be “present” and will cultivate an understanding of why being present has been shown to improve well-being. It is the instructor’s hope that this course will help students increase their resilience to stress, understand themselves and others more effectively, focus more deeply, and enjoy life more fully.
