Mission Statement
Our mission at TCD Mindfulness Society is to improve the wellbeing of the Trinity College student community as a whole. We believe that students of all disciplines and backgrounds can benefit immensely from the techniques and practices that we advocate and we want to act as a vessel through which students can access them. We aim to increase accessibility and awareness through our public events, specially curated blogs and regularly updated resources list.
Our Vision
We believe that excellent performance in all walks of life comes with a necessity of discipline and self-regulation. We know that mindfulness can help to achieve that balance. Our core vision encompasses mindfulness complimenting and enhancing every students’ experience at Trinity College Dublin and beyond.
A note on Covid-19
As the academic year continues within the clutches of this pandemic, uncertainty and apprehension are riper within our student body than ever before. We believe students can gain hugely from adopting mindfulness techniques and we implore you to use us as a resource to launch or continue your mindfulness journey.
