Faculty Well-Being: Mindfulness
A UAB Center for Teaching and Learning event
Presented by: Employee Assistance and Counseling Center
Description: In the hustle and bustle of day-to-day life, many of us struggle with being fully present – we are thinking ahead or looking back and often miss what is happening right now. This often leads to more stress and anxiety and can feel like an unbreakable cycle. In this one-hour seminar, participants will explore how mindfulness practices can help break this cycle and lead to reduced stress and other benefits. Participants will learn about different types of mindfulness practices and create a personal plan for building mindfulness into their daily lives.
Please Note: This workshop is designed for current UAB teaching faculty, instructors of record, academic advisors, and other student-facing staff members. Graduate students and postdoctoral scholars are invited to attend the CTL LIFT series workshops instead.
Total CTL Point Value: 10,000 pts.
