Holistic Huskies' Mindfulness Fact!
Fact #4: Mindfulness ≠ Meditation
Mindfulness isn't limited to mediation; it can be creative, practical, and geared to your needs.

Join the Holistic Huskies in the Homer Babbidge Library from 12-2pm to learn mindfulness basics, practice breathing and grounding exercises, and take time to reset in a supportive, nonjudgmental space. Open to all experience levels—come pause, recharge, and find what works for you. Find selections from the UConn Library’s wellness collection or ask a librarian for help finding more resources to take with you.

Practice mindfulness. Breathe. Reset.
