Book excerpt: "At no time in the last 75 years have college students faced greater challenges as they struggle to prepare themselves for the future -- pandemic-induced social isolation, drastically limited economic prospects with the likelihood of long-term scarring effects, and a dangerously divided nation rife with systemic racism. Given these unprecedented challenges, The College Mindfulness Workbook arrives at a particularly important time. The College Mindfulness Workbook invites students to explore an exciting and engaging set of activities designed to introduce the principles of mindfulness - the ability to be fully present in the current moment without judgment -- and incorporate these mindfulness principles into their academic and personal lives. Each chapter includes exercises, prompts, and readings that help students develop skills like time management, collaboration and personal reflection through a mindfulness lens. Each exercise has been tested and honed over time by the authors in their own college classrooms, where they have witnessed the power of these techniques to increase students' success, mental health, and overall well-being. These exercises have been used in many courses, including English, First-Year Experience, and Nursing, but could fit seamlessly into any curriculum and yield profound results. This workbook provides skills that will enable students not only to thrive in college, but also to prepare themselves to become active and productive citizens who are ready to meet whatever challenges lie ahead."--Publisher's review.
