They will gain an understanding of mindfulness practice, begin to examine the ever-growing research related to physical and mental health, stress reduction, learning, memory, and brain function. They will explore the mechanisms by which mindfulness may influence health. They will also identify settings and professions where mindfulness has been studied and integrated, such as with health care providers, educators, parents, children, and athletes.
