Being a graduate student can be one of the most fulfilling opportunities for learning and professional growth. At the same time, it can also be one of the most stressful endeavors, full of opportunities for deeply questioning our own competence, commitment and choices. While mindfulness practice can't present a roadmap to your destination or a shield to protect you from every hazard, it can provide a reliable compass and walking stick to guide and stabilize your journey. In this talk, a set of mindfulness techniques will be introduced that, with enough practice, will support you across grad school’s ups and downs. Ìý
