CI-157 Mindful Journal
To keep a journal is to make an investment, often long before we understand the value. A journal is a personal database of snapshots in time, good ideas and bad, observational doodles and unfiltered emotions. On any given page a journal may appear inconsequential but within the rigor of filling a whole notebook (and another, and another) an individual viewpoint emerges. This class will facilitate a student's ability to draw from his or her own lived experience and discover unique springboards into universal issues by making mindful connections. An entire lifetime of images, stories and details resides within each of our minds but the ability to explore that richness requires dedication to documentation. Mindful Journal is a process class fostering focus through mindfulness practices, content generation and meaning making.
