About this Event
UAB Arts in Medicine (AIM) is excited to offer virtual mindfulness classes every Thursday. AIM seeks to transform the care environment and enhance well-being and healing through creative arts experiences for patients, their families, and staff. Integrating the arts into health care is proven to benefit patients and caregivers in the following ways:
- Reduced stress
- Reduction in perceived pain
- Improved mood
- Distraction from medical problems
- Increased self-expression
- Increased self-confidence
Sessions led by Dr. Kristine Hurst-Wajszczuk
