The OSSD Mindfulness Program was implemented in 2017. The Mindfulness Team works with students to incorporate healthy, mindful habits in their everyday lives through contemplative practice. The Mindfulness Program is free of charge and is open for all registered OSSD students. There is no prior knowledge of mindfulness needed in order to participate!

For the Spring 2018 semester, meditations are offered every Monday and Wednesday in the OSSD's NEW Mindfulness Room. Take a mindful moment for yourself, come join us, and find your zen.

If you are interested or have any questions please contact the Mindfulness Coaches:

Mary Schlosbon- MS781965@wcupa.edu
