All Cabarrus College of Health Sciences students have the opportunity to earn Healing Touch Certification, International Association of Infant Massage Certification, and become registered Yoga Alliance Teachers through elective coursework.
Cabarrus College is proud to offer Mindfulness for Self-Care to our Students. This course (IHS 350 - Mindfulness for Self-Care) is a hybrid course and is worth 3 semester hours.
What is Mindfulness? Mindfulness is a way of paying attention to, and seeing clearly whatever is happening in our lives. It will not eliminate life's pressures, but it can help us respond to them in a calmer manner that benefits our heart, head, and body. It helps us recognize and step away from habitual, often unconscious emotional and physiological reactions to everyday events. It provides us with a scientifically researched approach to cultivating clarity, insight, and understanding. Practicing mindfulness allows us to be fully present in our life and work, and improve our quality of life.
