Four Short Mindfulness and Relaxation Exercises as Finals and Graduation Approaches

These four exercises were offered by Scott Rogers to law students during a recent workshop focusing on mindfulness, concentration, and relaxation during this challenging time at the conclusion of their semester and, fo rmany, law school education. Students may find one or more exercise helpful for developing concentration, reducing stress and worry, relaxation, and insight. Exercises are between 6 and 10 minutes in length. One of the images developed by the Institute for Mindfulness Studies for teaching mindfulness is discussed briefly in the introduction so that listeners who did not attend the workshop will be able to appreciate the imagery.
