Mindfulness is a practice that one can be achieved in many different ways. Health Initiatives has an entire line-up of activities that will let you try out different approaches to mindfulness. Starting on Monday, February 5^th, 2018, Georgia Tech students, faculty, and staff will be able to participate in multiple mindfulness events and activities. The week includes meditation courses, tabling events, and even a dark chocolate sampling!

            In addition to the Mindfulness Week events, Health Initiatives will be offering a free, weekly drop-in mindfulness class for faculty, staff, and students. Each class will provide a guided meditation and discussion of the benefits of continued practice. Classes will be held in the Student Center Crescent Room Tuesdays from 4:00 – 5:00 p.m., from January 16^th through April 24^th.

Also, the GT Mediation Club is offering a 5-week meditation course (every Sunday). The course begins on February 4^th, 2018 and ends on March 11^th, 2018.  Throughout the 5 weeks, you will learn about meditation practices designed to bring out a greater sense of calmness and clarity. This series will help calm your thoughts and discover the natural clarity of a balanced mind. In the modern world, it is difficult to find a time and place to step back and focus on mindfulness, but with this 5-week course, one will be able to reach mindfulness with ease. The course fee is $15.00, and for more details contact jtsukahara@gatech.edu.
