Fullerton College: A Mindful Campus Community

Mindfulness encourages us to develop:

FOCUSED ATTENTION to direct our awareness with intentionality and curiosity to our present-moment experience

NONJUDGMENTAL ACCEPTANCE of our unfolding experiences, mind and body

COMPASSION AND KINDNESS toward ourselves and our world

Formal and informal mindfulness practices

Foster participants’ capacity for deep reflection, meaningful inquiry and critical thinking through the development of diverse ways of knowing.

Encourage students to engage with course texts, with each other, and with their instructor in ways that may help them to transform their views of their lives, their paths as scholars, and themselves as global citizens.

Nurture participants’ capacity for self-knowledge, self-compassion, and social responsibility.

Invite participants to be more open and imperfect, less competitive, and more human.

Open space for uncomfortable but meaningful conversations, allowing participants to critically examine their convictions while seeking an authentic understanding of the views of others.

Cultivate a teaching presence that supports student learning while building student resilience and promoting well-being.
