The Center for Mindfulness, Compassion and Resilience at Arizona State University unveils the power of mindful living to advance our well-being and engagement through learning and connecting with the larger community. This training aims to bring the larger community together in an educational setting to have open space for healthfulness, personal balance and resiliency conversations among students, employees, and the community by participating in full-day Professional Development Certificate workshop. To become a leader in mindfulness, development and maintenance of a personal practice is essential. During this workshop we will discuss the mingling of mindfulness and leadership, but more importantly you will practice some of the 8 ways to begin your own mindfulness regimen as laid out by Jon Kabat-Zinn (Body Scan, Sitting Meditation, Yoga, 1-minute breathing (stress), dealing with emotional & physical discomfort, mindful communication, lovingkindness meditation, developing a practice of your own) so that you may in turn lead others in the skills of mindfulness.Participants will learn how to incorporate mindfulness into their own lives as well as lead mindfulness efforts in their department, organization or family.
