Mindfulness Writing Challenge (1/22)
Date: Friday, January 22, 2021
Time: All Day Event
Location: Online via Zoom
Do you find yourself continuously stressed and unable to “be in the moment”?
Are you nervous about not having enough to do during breaks and times of the year with little schoolwork to complete?
Do you want to learn more about yourself and your habits of mind?
Do you like to write and think?
Do you hate writing and thinking?
Are you interested in mindfulness and other contemplative practices?
If you answered yes to any of these questions (and even if you answered no), then the winter term mindfulness writing challenge is for you!
Each week, the Writing Center in the CTLR will share information about mindfulness and other contemplative writing practices along with a short mindfulness writing activity to complete. A peer writing tutor will be available throughout the challenge to support and mentor you through the process.
At the end of the challenge, the Writing Center Director—Professor Giaimo—and peer tutor Ericka Perez (’23) will invite participants to gather to share their writing, reflect on the challenges, and connect with one another. Students can engage in the challenge at their own pace and at their discretion.
Register at any point in the session to participate in one or all the mindfulness actvities to write, experiment, reflect, and think with us in a low pressure, low stakes way.
