A growing amount of research over the past 20 years has demonstrated the benefits of mindfulness for both physical and mental wellbeing.
Mindfulness can help increase focus, manage stress and enhance performance. According to recent research from UBC Sauder School of Business, it can also increase the ability to manage conflict in the workplace. Whether you’re new to mindfulness, practicing already, or part of a department or unit looking for a team-building activity, you can benefit from this simple practice.
At UBC, you have the opportunity to explore mindfulness and enhance your wellbeing with the 30-Day Online Mindfulness Challenge. Through our collaboration with MindWell-U, you can access content via any online or mobile device and focus on simple yet powerful and achievable learning objectives. If you’re looking to improve your communication, boost your wellbeing and become better at managing stress, then this challenge may be a good fit for you.
