Project Summary The CSUSM URISE (5T34GM136481) and B2PhD (R25GM066341) programs support the NIH/NIGMS goal of increasing the diversity of the biomedical workforce. This Supplement Proposal aims to develop and deliver a series of workshops on mindfulness to reduce stress and anxiety and improve the overall wellbeing of our students. The goal of this activity is to offer students mindfulness tools that can help: (i) Quiet the habitual chatter of the mind; (ii) Cultivate a capacity for deep awareness; (iii) Reduce emotional reactivity; (iv) Increase feelings of connectedness, compassion and belonging; and (v) Help students thrive and develop resilience in an uncertain and rapidly changing world. This two-semester series of workshops will be an introduction to mindfulness and how participants can make mindfulness part of their everyday lives. These practices are intended to increase student capacity for pausing, reflecting, and then responding from a place of wisdom and compassion. It will introduce students to mindfulness practices such as mindfulness of breath, mindfulness of body, mindfulness of thought, mindful eating, mindful movement, mindfulness of emotions, joy, and compassion practices. We will offer practices that help students deal with everyday challenges with equanimity. We will help students develop capacity for dealing with difficult emotions with kindness. We will help students learn that making mistakes is not a sign of failure. Instead, we will help them develop confidence that they can learn from their mistakes and be stronger and more resilient in the process. We will also discuss how and why mindfulness practices are relevant to our everyday lives and can help us heal from the trauma of othering and isolation. We will also include specific evidence- based practices to reduce procrastination. According to psychologists, we procrastinate to avoid the negative emotions associated with doing the task. When we procrastinate, we prioritize short term mood repair over long term pursuit of intended goals. In that sense, procrastination is not a time management issue but rather an emotion management one. Procrastination is also about making a temporal trade-off. When we procrastinate, we sacrifice the future for the present for the sake of mood repair. Some of the strategies that we will offer students include self-compassion, mindfulness of emotions, finding meaning in tasks that we typically procrastinate on and connecting with our future selves. The B2PhD and URISE Programs, in concert with a highly supportive campus environment, will prepare students from UR groups to be thoughtful scientists who have the knowledge, skills, research experience and character that prepare them for doctoral studies in the biomedical and behavioral sciences and that allow them to become future leaders in science and academia.

项目摘要 CSUSM URISE（5 T34 GM 136481）和B2 PhD（R25 GM 066341）计划支持 NIH/NIGMS的目标是增加生物医学劳动力的多样性。这种补充剂 提案旨在开发和提供一系列关于正念的研讨会，以减轻压力 和焦虑，改善我们学生的整体健康。本次活动的目的是提供 学生的正念工具可以帮助：（i）让头脑习惯性的喋喋不休安静下来;（ii）培养 （三）减少情绪反应;（四）增加对 连通性、同情心和归属感;以及（v）帮助学生茁壮成长并培养适应力 在一个不确定和快速变化的世界。这两个学期的系列研讨会将是一个 正念简介以及参与者如何将正念融入日常生活 生活这些练习旨在提高学生暂停，反思，然后 从一个充满智慧和同情的地方回应。它将向学生介绍正念 练习，如呼吸的正念，身体的正念，思想的正念，正念 饮食、正念运动、正念情绪、喜悦和慈悲的练习。我们将 提供帮助学生平静地处理日常挑战的实践。我们将帮助 培养学生用善良处理困难情绪的能力。我们将帮助学生 要明白犯错误并不意味着失败。相反，我们将帮助他们建立信心 他们可以从错误中吸取教训，在这个过程中变得更强大，更有弹性。我们 还将讨论如何以及为什么正念练习与我们的日常生活有关， 帮助我们从他人和孤立的创伤中治愈。我们还将提供具体证据- 以减少拖延。根据心理学家的说法，我们拖延是为了避免 与完成任务相关的负面情绪。当我们拖延的时候， 短期情绪修复超过长期追求预期目标。从这个意义上说，拖延是 不是时间管理问题，而是情绪管理问题。拖延症也是 时间上的权衡当我们拖延的时候，我们牺牲了未来， 是为了修复情绪我们将为学生提供的一些策略包括 自我同情，情绪的正念，在任务中找到意义，我们通常 拖延和联系未来的自己。B2 PhD和URISE计划，在 音乐会与高度支持的校园环境，将准备从UR组的学生， 是有思想的科学家谁拥有的知识，技能，研究经验和性格， 为他们攻读生物医学和行为科学的博士学位做好准备，并使他们能够 成为未来科学和学术界的领袖。
