This event will feature an hour of relaxation and balance as we go through a guided meditation facilitated by Jennifer Yuen from Counselling Services. Participants are invited to experience this however they would like in the space (e.g., lying down, sitting on a chair, sitting on the ground, bringing a blanket). All current postdocs at the University of Waterloo are welcome to attend.
