It was a very enjoyable, organized, and well-planned course. I am really happy with it.
It's a nice opportunity to know more about yourself, your body, and your mind.
Thank you for this journey!

Was helpful in understanding how to process supressed emotions that may be lingering in sub conscience hindering your mind from being attentive and free to experience life and new ways of thinking

Just to say thanks to Dr Elizabeth Slator and her time from Rice and Coursera. Thanks!!
Time well spent in doing this training in Mindfulness. Now, I have the awareness to stop when I am doing something, a simple task only for the sake of doing. It is really nice to stop and appreciate and be grateful looking it with a different eyes what nature, life have to offer.

Awesome course. Activities seem very simple, however when applied really make you realize just how much we run on autopilot. Dr Slater has a way of instructing that makes you want to try the activities. Much to my surprise, most activities were an eye, and mind, opener. I look forward to the two follow-up courses.

Great course that provided tremendous benefits to me personally. It's one of the few courses that I've taken online that I truly looked forward to returning module after module. I believe everyone can find some takeaways from this course to live more in the present, more mindfully and with greater gratitude.

Mindfulness is a type of meditation in which you focus on being intensely aware of what you're sensing and feeling in the moment, without interpretation or judgment. Practicing mindfulness involves breathing methods, guided imagery, and other practices to relax the body and mind and help reduce stress.

I have taken a meditation course once before and I have something to compare with. This Coursera course is outstanding. It gives you such a broad overview of the the topic. But it also encourages to focus on the small details. As a lecturer myself, I noticed how well the course is designed. 5/5!

Magnificient, mind changing course!!! Maybe not so easy to fully understand if you have no previous knowledge on the subject, but still you will definitely understand the main concepts that can really change your life. A must course for anyone who wants to find more meaning & well-being in his life!

The course is good, but we are asked to share parts of ourselves that are very private in a forum that is very public, and its internet security could be compromised. We suppose to trust the discussion forums and be vulnerable on the discussion forums but that may lead someone in our doorsteps.

I enjoyed the course. It was my first experience with mindfulness and meditation. I found the practice a bit challenging; however It opened a new door for me. The instructor was wonderful. I look forward to taking another course soon
Thank you for a wonderful opportunity.

This course, to my mind, is very valuable. It will help students become more focused, attentive, and aware of the surroundings. Students will have a new set of eyes, and will notice things which they have taken for granted before. I wish I had this course when I was younger.

Initially this course helps in opening our ears and followed by insight view on both breath and body.
I would like my sincere gratitude to start from Buddha , Jon Kabat-Zin , RICE(Professor Dr.Elizabeth), Coursera and not least our sponsored Group of College RAMCO.

Excellent course. The ability to communicate and to empathize of Dr Slator doubled its value. I really recommend it to everyone which has a honest and curious interest in what mindfulness really is and of course to everyone which is in the search of himself.

Dr. Elizabeth Slator does a remarkable job of explaining the benefits and various ways of practicing mindfulness in a way that encourages sustainable growth as much as educates. I truly enjoyed this course and am grateful for the opportunity to participate.

This course was instrumental to opening my eyes to the difference of meditation and a mindfulness practice - some similarities, but differences too. I feel so fortunate to have come across Dr. Elizabeth Slator's course!

Although I was familiar with some of the techniques used, I was made aware to many insights that were new to me. It was a good grounding space to start and deepening my relationship with mindfulness and myself.
