Mindfulness Group

Your mind has a big responsibility in your holistic health and well being. Breaking down the processes of your mind and learning how you are the way you are helps you to take an active role in your well being. Mindfulness teaches you how to increase your awareness of your mental processes and reduces the feeling of being overwhelmed by life.

Learn to live a Mindful Life by joining Counseling & Health Promotion Services on Wednesdays. Contact CHPS to learn more about this weekly event at [email protected].
