It’s tough to find peace in this chaotic world.

How do we cope with life’s adversities and transform our experiences into resilience? How can we, as healthcare professionals, communities, and our society as a whole, benefit from mindfulness and increased self-awareness? Join us for a half-day of offerings from accomplished speakers and practitioners leading sessions on these timely questions focusing on mindfulness, healing, and building resilience. 
 

A fundamental tenet of UTHSC’s mission is to improve the health and well-being of our global community. As proponents of this mission, it is critical that we invest in our wellness to strengthen our impact and generate meaningful change.

This summit will equip UTHSC healthcare professionals and community members with tools and practices that sustain our wellbeing to ultimately better help those we serve. We will explore mindfulness practices, Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs), coping strategies, and behavioral health resources.
 

This event is free and open to student, staff, faculty,
and community members.
