Workshop description: In this workshop, we will learn practices that can be used to bring ourselves into calmer, more centered, more mindful states of being while engaging in the dissertation writing process. We will explore foundational mindfulness teachings that can support our writing and well-being. We’ll consider how courageously befriending ourselves and cultivating states of self-compassion and present-moment awareness can transform our relationship to the writing process and to our own creative nature. This one-hour experiential workshop, led by Mindful USC Director, Allyson Pimentel, EdD, will include teachings on mindfulness, guided practice, and supportive group discussion.
Due to the interactive nature of this workshop, the session will not be recorded. Please visit https://mindful.usc.edu/ for additional resources and workshops should you be interested.
