 romotes Health and Well-being for Individuals\, Communities\, and the Plan
 et\n\nExperience how contemplative practices strengthen our capacity to ef
 fectively engage in the complex work of creating health and well-being for

 ation by Design®.\n\nThis interactive workshop provides opportunities to:

 ge to meet the needs of the moment. Develop a lifestyle that includes cont
 emplative practices (e.g.\, loving-kindness cultivation\, moral engagement

 ation\, and transformative service). Develop a Personal Action Plan for gr
 eater equanimity\, insight\, empathy\, kindness\, and wise action.  Become

 ses to which you are dedicated.Scholars have pointed to the role of Americ
 an colleges and universities as embodied places of societal values and asp
 irations\, reflecting both academic traditions and heritages alongside soc
