Become a Mindful Leader on Campus!

Center for Mindfulness and Compassion

Mindfulness is about cultivating a different mindset for living life, one that is grounded in the intention of being nonjudgmental, kind and curious.  Mindfulness is based on both ancient wisdom and recent learnings in neuroscience. It is best learned through formal training as well as personal practice in a supportive community.  Mindfulness has been shown to improve productivity and increase happiness.

During the Spring Semester Mindful Leader Trainees Are Expected to:

  • Attend weekly interactive sessions about compassion, mindfulness and depolarization 
  • Meditate 10 minutes a day and try different brief awareness activities
  • Explore different ways to share what you are learning with others
  • Make plans for starting a mindfulness and compassion-based student group
  • Lead at least one campus-wide program on campus

 

During the Fall Semester Mindful Leaders Are Expected to:

  • Continue to strengthen personal practices
  • Serve as leaders of the campus-wide mindfulness and compassion-based student group
  • Choose to lead drop-in mindfulness sessions on campus or to offer workshops in mindfulness, compassion or depolarization
  • Lead at least one campus-wide mindfulness, compassion or depolarization activity
