Mindful Society: President

Hello! My name is Holly and I am running for the position of President for next years Mindful Society committee. Over the current academic year I have been on the committee as a Welfare Officer and so I would love to expand my involvement within the society. I have been meditating and exercising mindful practises since the beginning of 2020, but I think the beauty of mindfulness is that you do not have to be some kind of spiritually enlightened guru to feel the benefits, and that is why I'd love to be a larger part of showing these approaches to anyone willing to try. 

If elected I would aim to: 

Organise weekly face to face events where we can have some much needed social time and create some peace and positivity to carry through the week. 

Create a safe and friendly space for anyone that needed it, offering a place to chat, rant, and learn some new ways of cultivating inner peace. 

Collaborate with members to find new and exciting ways to explore mindful practises, perhaps with nature walking, drawing, or even food!

Organise a variety of visitors to teach new and different methods of practising mindfulness and meditation.

I believe that even a little bit of time a week just focusing on yourself can create such a positive way of living that will influence all other areas of your life, and I'd love to try and illustrate this as president on the next committee!
