Registration 

The course is open to UWL students, staff & faculty only. There is no fee to attend, however attendees must register in advance by the deadline. 

Expectations

We’ve found that folks get a lot more out of mindfulness if they stick with it from beginning to end, therefore attendance at all course dates is required.

Before the first class and between classes, students are expected to complete assigned readings and log their mindfulness practices in the Koru App.  

Required Reading: FREE ebook available through Murphy Library 

Koru Mindfulness App: FREE subscription with class registration
