Creating Mindful Professionals: Well-Being in Practice Workshop
The IE Center for Health and Happiness Introduces Workshop for Business School Students.
The IE Center for Well-Being and Happiness and IE Business School introduced the new Well-Being in Practice workshop, designed to foster self-awareness and help students gauge the impact their emotions have on their wellness.
The pilot program launched in all undergrad and some master programs in IE Business School this semester and will expand to all other IE University schools and programs over the course of the next year.
“Well-being in Practice is a workshop to build awareness about student well-being, the interconnection of body-mind-soul and to leverage the science of positive emotions to cultivate ownership and action around well-being,” said Lisa Bevill, Academic Director of the Center for Health, Well-being and Happiness.
