Opportunity Summary 

The overall purpose of Mindful CSUSM is to provide support to all members of the campus community through contemplative practices, pedagogy and research that foster deep learning, reduced stress, increased capacity for compassionate listening and increased well-being. Our work is based on the premise, best stated by Nelson Mandela that: “If they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love”. Hence, our activities are focused on creating a more just and compassionate community. We are getting ready to launch a Center on mindfulness practices on our campus this semester. We are looking for students to help us prepare for the launch especially focusing on ways to engage students.
