Weekly Dose of Mindfulness

Cross-Campus Collaboration offerings are live, online professional development opportunities led by professionals from CSU campuses and open to employees across participating campuses. These sessions offer access to systemwide expertise and the opportunity to learn alongside colleagues throughout the CSU.

Weekly Dose of Mindfulness is an opportunity for all CSU community members to experience guided mindfulness practices with a trained facilitator. Mindfulness can be defined as paying attention, on purpose, to the present moment, with kindness and curiosity. These 30-minute sessions, held twice a week, focus on practices that will reduce stress and anxiety and improve overall wellbeing of our staff. The goal of this series is to offer evidence-based mindfulness tools that research has demonstrated can help: (i) Quiet the habitual chatter of the mind; (ii) Cultivate a capacity for deep awareness; (iii) Reduce emotional reactivity; (iv) Increase feelings of connectedness, compassion and belonging; (v) Help staff thrive and develop resilience in an uncertain and rapidly changing world. No prior experience is necessary.
