Bring a bagged lunch and join us in a walking meditation across campus where we’ll connect with our breath, environment, and each other. At the end of the walk, we will eat our lunches together while discussing ways to bring this mindful focus and attentiveness to our teaching. Rain backup: walking meditation in the T4LC.
