🌟Mindfulness for Academic Success will be running in Semester 1 2025, Bedford Park and City Campus🌟
What is Mindfulness for Academic Success?
Mindfulness is about being present and engaged in each moment of our lives. It is something you can learn, and research shows it can improve wellbeing and academic performance and reduce stress and anxiety.
Mindfulness for Academic Success is an evidence-based wellbeing program and consists of five 1 hour sessions over five weeks. During these sessions you will learn to use mindfulness to:
- reduce stress and anxiety
- improve focus
- stop procrastinating
- communicate more effectively
- study and work more efficiently (and with more enjoyment).
Each session builds on the one before so you must commit to all five sessions.
What do students say about the program?
“I experience less anxiety in the morning and less stress related to emails and supervisory feedback, I’m less reactive”
“I’m more aware of my feelings, I learnt many new strengths to deal with stress and procrastination”
“I’m more able to get to work and notice/be aware of stress responses and default mode”
“I found the session on procrastination to be the most practically useful and created the most change for me”
“The weekly sheets were awesome – perfect amount of info, practical, educational, relevant and interesting”
