Sustainable Lawyering: An Introduction to Mindfulness for 1Ls

Since Fall 2012, the Mindfulness Initiative has offered a non-credit Introduction to Mindfulness for 1Ls. The course is designed to equip first-year student with skills to be more effective in their studies, and to be balanced and happy during the challenges of first year and beyond.

Student comments:

“A great experience that helped me become a more balanced individual. I really recommend it.” 

“Take
it. Law school is a stressful experience, especially 1L year. Mindfulness
provides you with skills that will be beneficial to you throughout your entire
life and there really is no better time to start this practice!”

“I am so pleased with what I have learned and
experienced in the 1L Mindfulness Introduction, and I have no doubt that the
skills I acquired will be put to use throughout law school and beyond.”
