Awakened Awareness is a meditation-based series of workshops that was developed from research at Columbia University's Teachers College and the work of Dr. Lisa Miller, and has been conducted there with undergraduates. More colleges and universities across the country are now offering it to their own undergraduate populations.
In addition, participants can earn $35 in Amazon gift cards if they wish to opt-in to the research study conducted by the Spirituality and Psychology Lab at Teachers College, Columbia University, which will measure outcomes of the workshops. Study participants must be Columbia students 18 and older. Research participation includes filling out questionnaires. Upon registration, you will receive an email invitation from the researchers with study details.
