The Osher Center for Integrative Health at UC specializes in mindfulness programs including mind-body skills training for students and faculty. Mind-body techniques are effective for improving stress, anxiety, depression and well-being across a wide range of populations (e.g., Saunders et al., 2007; Shapiro et al., 1998). Mind-Body skills include mindful meditation, biofeedback, and guided imagery.
Adapted from the Georgetown University School of Medicine, Educating for Enhanced Self-Awareness and Self-Care: An Experiential Training in Mind-Body Medicine, faculty and staff are trained in mind-body skills by internationally-recognized experts to be able to lead and facilitate courses at their home institution.
During the immersive three-day retreat, participants practice mind-body approaches, such as meditation, journaling, biofeedback, and yoga to realize the benefits (manage stress, and foster well-being, among others) through personal experience. Lectures ground the practices in neuroscience and physiology, while experiential sessions demonstrate how to lead mind-body skills groups. Participants leave with the necessary training, tools, materials, and strategic thinking to help them implement the program in their home institution.
