Abstract

In this module, participants are encouraged to take personal inventory of changing and shifting balance, whether it be physically, emotionally, cognitively, or performance-based. We discuss current practices to shift or change balance when needed. As this is the last module of the curriculum, participants will identify areas in everyday life activities where mindfulness can come into play and brainstorm goals and strategies for maintaining mindful practice beyond the course.
