Join SHW counsellor, Holly Maki, to dip your toes into mindfulness. This session includes an introduction to mindfulness where we hope to create some “aha moments” about mindfulness, maybe even inspiring you to want to know more.  Included in this session there will be an explanation of what mindfulness is, how it can be supportive to your well-being and the opportunity to participate in some brief mindfulness exercises. 

Open to students, faculty and staff.
