Details: Mindful Mondays is an opportunity for Maine law students, faculty, and staff to learn and practice mindfulness meditation in an informal drop-in group. No experience or commitment is required. Many lawyers, judges, and law students engage in mindfulness meditation practice, which can improve focus and learning and help to manage stress and anxiety, among other benefits. Please join us if you are curious about learning mindfulness meditation or an experienced meditator who’d like a chance to practice with others here on campus. Each week there will be brief instruction in basic mindfulness meditation, a guided meditation led by an experienced practitioner, and the opportunity for Q&A. We provide written resources and information for developing your own practice.
