The Student Success Center and Jacqui McMillian-Bohler, assistant professor, are partnering with DuWell to offer a Koru Mindfulness course focused on supporting Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) members of our community at Duke. During an unprecedented year in the struggle to end racial violence and address inequality in the United States, we feel it is critical to attend to the wellness and coping of communities of color.

The four-week class will be hosted by McMillian-Bohler on Tuesday evenings, starting February 9 at 5 p.m., and all BIPOC students, faculty, and staff at DUSON are welcome to join. Please plan to commit to all four sessions. Mindfulness and Meditation benefit from practice, and it can take over a month to create a new wellness habit.

Space is limited, so reserve your spot today. 

Developed right here at Duke, Koru Mindfulness is an evidence-based program specifically designed for teaching mindfulness and meditation as way to manage stress and reduce anxiety. You will learn specific skills that help calm and focus your mind, including breathing exercises, guided imagery, body scan, and more! Over 700 Duke undergraduate and graduate students have been trained through Koru, so you're in good company.
