Course description

The class will introduce students to a variety of techniques by which the stress endemic in a fast-paced competitive culture can be both reduced and worked with constructively. Students will practice and apply experiential techniques of stress-reduction through “mindfulness” – the steady, intentional gathering of a non-judgmental awareness into the present moment in various activities – and examine medical / scientific literature on physiological and psychological elements in the stress response.
