Mindfulness for Stress and Anxiety Monday, November 16th, 2015
12:00 pm – 1:30 pm Room #5417
Are you feeling stressed? Overwhelmed? Does it feel like you’re always somewhere else, ruminating about the past or worrying about the future? Are you engaging in behaviors to manage stress that you would like to change?
Mindfulness is a practice of learning to attend to the present moment with more
acceptance. It is a systematic way of slowing down, observing one’s reactions, and relating to experiences with greater ease and compassion. Mindfulness has been
shown to enhance well-being by reducing the impact of stress and helping people cope with symptoms of anxiety and depression. In addition, mindfulness can be applied to
managing urges and cravings to use substances or other problematic behaviors such as self-injury and over-eating.
Join us for a workshop to learn the basic principles of mindfulness along with guided
practices that can be easily incorporated in daily life. All are welcome.
Dr. Jenifer Talley is a clinical psychologist and Assistant Director of The Center for Optimal Living and Assistant Director of The New School’s Concentration in Mental Health and Substance Abuse Counseling. She has expertise in helping people develop mindfulness practices to address symptoms of anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use, and other risky behaviors. Rachel Wyner, M.A. is a Clinical Psychology Extern at Student Counseling Services at the Wellness Center Student Counseling Services. Please note that no food or beverage will be allowed during this workshop.

Come to an open panel featuring Google's Director of Education and University Relations, Maggie Johnson. Dr. Johnson, who received her PhD in Computer Science from CUNY's Graduate Center in 1991, went on to teach at Stanford University before joining Google, where she directs the company's internal technical training, its K-12 education programs, and its strategic partnerships with faculty, labs, and universities. At the 2015 Commencement in May, GC President Chase Robinson awarded her the President's Distinguished Alumni Medal.
At this event, Jenny Furlong, the Director of the GC's Office of Career Planning and Professional Development, will interview Dr. Johnson, who argues, "Google's culture is academic at its core....That spirit of curiosity and exploration is what drives [us]...to the next level."
CUNY recently launched Academic Works, an open access institutional repository that is the ideal way for you to make articles, book chapters, data, etc. available to your research community and the broader public. It’s also the perfect place to satisfy grant funders’ open access and open data requirements! This workshop will introduce faculty and graduate students to Academic Works, present some of the compelling reasons to post works there, and provide step-by-step instructions for uploading works. Attendees are encouraged to bring an article, conference presentation, or other work to upload. Everyone who successfully uploads a work will receive a treat! (Those without works to upload right now are also welcome!) Curious whether you’re allowed to upload an article you published in a journal? Search SHERPA/RoMEO to find out what that journal allows.

Do you often feel like a fraud, faking your way through graduate school, just waiting for your true
inadequacies to be exposed for all to see? Enduring and sometimes overwhelming feelings of fraudulence
are central to psychological experience known as The Imposter Phenomenon. In this interactive workshop,
we will discuss The Imposter Phenomenon, and work to help students develop strategies to combat this
often crippling experience. Alice Mangan, Ph.D. is a clinical psychologist and has a private practice in NYC. She works clinically with children, adolescents and young adults in individual, group and couples treatment. She is also a learning specialist and parent and educational consultant.
