Faculty and staff are welcome to join this workshop exploring mindfulness... through doodling! Mindfulness is the practice of staying in the present moment non-judgmentally. Join fellow faculty to discuss the essence of mindfulness and find new ways to practice—through doodling! This workshop will include experiential activities with different doodling exercises you can take with you to practice anytime, anywhere, with nothing but a pen and a piece of paper. All art supplies will be provided!
