Mindful Meditation

A great way to relax here at RIC

When I first heard that an article was desired on the Mindful Meditation group that meets every Thursday at 12 p.m. in the Counseling Center, my first thought was I have no time. Then I thought about it and realized I was curious and figured that I might as well write an article if I was going.
I have had some experience with relaxation and such things before and figured there would be no harm in at least trying. Previous experience is not required at all; I am just one of those people who find different techniques helpful to relieve stress. After all I am a college student.
I walked into the Counseling Center, in Craig-Lee Hall, a little before noon and took a seat in the waiting area. A few more students trickled in, and I hoped there would be more so I would not be put on the spot more than I would if it was a larger group. Walking into the meeting room where the group takes place, I realized that everyone who was there actually wanted to be there. It was not like a required class at all where half the people take it because they have to. (More)
