University of Toronto
cordially invites you to a thought-provoking presentation by
Professor John Vervaeke
Faculty of Arts and Science, Department of Psychology
University of Toronto
What does it mean to be mindful? Professor Vervaeke's talk explores mindfulness in today's society and proposes reformulating the mindfulness construct. Audience members will learn how related attentional processes can contribute to an invididual's ability to increase insight and self-regulation, and get onself "in the zone."
Join us as we investigate how mindfulness can contribute significantly to one's overall sense of well-being and quality of life.
