Overwhelm, Stress and Anxiety (Therapy Group)

Date

Wednesday February 12, 2025
4:00 pm - 5:30 pm

Location

In-person (location sent upon registration)

This psycho-educational group will be a mix of theory and  practice. It is for students who want to improve their focus and decrease signs of anxiety and stress, without having to spend hours in sitting meditation.  During each of the weeks, you will get the opportunity to experience a variety of mindfulness exercises (e.g., body scan, mindful eating, and mindful self-compassion) in an environment that allows you to ask questions and receive feedback. Many of them do not require you to sit still!  The group also provides accountability to keep you on track as you integrate the practice of ‘mindfulness-based stress reduction’ into your daily life. You will  learn ways to regulate your mood and improve focus during stress filled times.   

*Regular attendance/ practice is recommended to get maximum benefits, but drop ins are welcome! 

W2025 dates/times: Wednesdays 4:00-5:30pm, January 29 to March 12 (excluding February 19th)
