KORU MINDFULNESS IS AN EVIDENCE-BASED CURRICULUM SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED FOR TEACHING MINDFULNESS, MEDITATION, AND STRESS MANAGEMENT TECHNIQUES.
The Koru Mindfulness program was developed over the course of a decade by psychiatrists Holly Rogers, MD & Margaret Maytan, MD to bring the benefits of mindfulness to the college students they worked with at Duke University.
Research has found that individuals who completed the Koru Mindfulness course experienced decreased stress, improved sleep, increased self-compassion, and increased mindfulness.

Koru Mindfulness is a 4-week workshop focused on teaching mindfulness, meditation, and stress management techniques. Each week individuals learn at least one mindfulness skill and one guided meditation. There is also a discussion portion where people can talk about their experience practicing mindfulness both in the workshop and at home. This workshop will help individuals build the habit of mindfulness and incorporate it into their life on a regular basis.
People get a lot more out of Koru if they stick with it from beginning to end, therefore attendance at all 4 sessions is required. Zoom link and instructions on how to pay will be emailed after you sign up below.
