Mindfulness can be defined as paying attention in a particular way: on purpose, in the present moment and non-judgmentally. Research has shown that practicing mindfulness is effective in reducing stress-related symptoms such as worry, depression and physical tension, and may be helpful in managing chronic conditions. Mindfulness for Better Living includes a suite of one-time workshops to help people learn ways to use mindfulness to manage everyday stress.

SLEEP Basics: The goal of this workshop is to understand the importance of sleep for both physical and mental health. Recognize the importance of sleep hygiene. Identify strategies to improve sleep. In addition, participants will learn how to continue their learning through a six-lesson series. This workshop is an overview for the SLEEP 6-week series.
