Psychology of Mindfulness

PSYC-4430

Mindfulness involves giving particular attention to our moment-to-moment experiences in a way that emphasizes observing, rather than judging or evaluating. There is empirical evidence of the many health benefits of mindfulness meditation, including the potential to produce fundamental changes in brain structure and epigenetic change. In this class, participants will discuss the historical and psychological foundations of mindfulness and empirical findings supporting its positive effects. Students will participate in structured exercises. This course is a very hands-on approach to mindfulness. Students will be required to practice mindfulness and meditation and develop their mindful skills.Â Â
