In this course students will bring mindfulness concepts and techniques into environmental studies. Students will develop a mindfulness practice centered on the natural world, deepening a sense of interbeing and awakening new perspectives on ecospirituality, environmental ethics, and human relationships with the other-than-human. Students will bring a mindfulness lens to modern environmental problems, leading to a deeper understanding of conflict resolution, personal ethics, environmental justice, and social change in a time of environmental crisis.
