Virtual mindfulness workshops aim to improve stress management and quality of life

Work with three incredibly knowledgeable and experienced instructors in developing a mindfulness practice that supports your work-life balance and overall well-being.  Participants can expect to be engaged in a variety of mindful exercises purposefully designed to provide personal and professional value, including:

  • The science of mindfulness and its positive effects on the brain
  • Guided meditation for mental clarity and focus
  • Energizing yoga poses capable of being done at home or in the office with limited space or props
  • Mindful compassion, communication, and eating exercises

This weekly workshop series will cover techniques to effectively change your response to stress, the result of which is a calmer, more focused and resilient mind. The virtual series will take place every Monday from 12 p.m. to 1 p.m. during the month of June and is free for all WVU Medicine employees and WVU students, faculty, and staff.
