Every Monday during Spring Semester 2021, employees at Counseling & Disability Services host a mindfulness workshop called the Mindfulness Monday Meeting for all students to join in a meditation designed to help students cope with the challenges of everyday life.
“If it’s in a safe environment, mindfulness helps you face what makes you anxious ... [and] facing, sensing or being more aware of our anxieties makes you feel better,” said Nomuna Enkhtuvshin, an alumna from Mongolia. She is currently doing her academic training through Counseling & Disability Services.
During the online workshop, she said she facilitates mindfulness meditations to help students cope with their emotions. She explained this is a casual drop-in group where students can comfortably do meditations together over Zoom.
