Faculty and Staff Assistance Program (FSAP) Mindful Living seminars are offered monthly to explore the basic tenets of mindfulness, review the significance of mindful living, and guide participants through a mindfulness practice. Being mindful increases engagement with the present moment and allows for a clearer understanding of how thoughts and emotions impact our health and the quality of our lives. This month’s FSAP Mindful Living seminar will focus on Mindful Parenting and will be facilitated by Professor Scott Rogers, director of the University of Miami’s Mindfulness in Law Program and co-founder of the UMindfulness Research and Practice Initiative.  Rogers has been sharing mindfulness across the U for more than a decade and has taught mindfulness and developed mindfulness trainings for more than 20 years. He is a nationally recognized leader in mindfulness and collaborates on research exploring the enduring brain and behavior changes that may accompany mindfulness trainings.
