Wellness Circle discussions will be facilitated by Dr. Urvashi Mulasi, Nutrition faculty and Director of the Dietetics program, who has studied and practiced mindfulness for many years, including with author Jon Kabat-Zinn. There will be three Wellness Circle gatherings in spring spaced one month apart, giving Wellness Circle participants time to practice the techniques learned. Topics will include: the seven foundations of mindfulness (non-judging, patience, beginner’s mind, trust, non-striving, acceptance, letting go); sitting meditation; body scan meditation practice; eating meditation practice; mindful yoga; and incorporating mindfulness on the go.
