Are you feeling overwhelmed by postgraduate studies? Do you have difficulty resting the mind when you want to? Mindfulness may help! Mindfulness is a scientifically-proven set of skills for de-stressing and improving one's mind and wellbeing. The Finding Peace in a Frantic World and mindfulness courses of the MBCT curricula, currently offered to students at top universities and international parliamentarians, have been found in research to be effective.

We cordially invite research postgraduate students in Hong Kong and Macau to participate in this free 8-week online Finding Peace in a Frantic World course. As participants, you will learn mindfulness skills to improve wellbeing, as well as contribute to research on mindfulness.

研究生的學習壓力是否令你有點吃不消？想要靜下來休息時，腦袋卻停不了？靜觀(也稱「正念」)或會對你有幫助呢! 靜觀是一套經過科學證明的技能，可以減壓及改善身心健康。“在喧囂的世界獲取安寧” 這個靜觀課程及同系列課程目前提供給世界頂尖大學的學生和國際議員, 研究證實有效。

我們誠邀港澳在讀研究生參與這個免費的八周靜觀課程。作為參與者，你會學到靜觀技能, 提升身心健康, 更為靜觀研究作出貢獻。
