Summer 2024 Mindfulness Sessions

The Thich Nhat Hanh Center for Mindfulness in Public Health welcomes Harvard Chan students, staff, and faculty to come together for an afternoon mindfulness practice over the summer. We will meet twice per month on Thursdays from 1 p.m. to 1:50 p.m. beginning June 6th, 2024.

The drop-in mindfulness sessions include sitting and walking meditations, learning about mindfulness, and practicing mindfulness to enhance our energy of ease and rest. The practice will start at 1 p.m. and aim to end at 1:50 p.m., however, you are permitted to come and go at any time.

Mindfulness and mindful living require no special equipment. It can be done anytime, anywhere. And if you fall away from the practice for a stretch, it is easy to get back into it. A few deep breaths can help you reset and refocus. We hope you can join us.
