An embodied practices taster session for the new academic year.
Event date and time: Tuesday 15th September 2026, 10.00 – 10.30
Start the academic year on a positive footing – join us for a 30-minute mindful movement session with Lisa Clughen (lecturer, learning developer and trained embodiment and mindful movement coach). Designed specifically with Learning Developers in mind, this embodied session will explore, through mindful movement and somatic practices, the following questions:
- How can our bodies support us in the sorts of things we, as learning developers, will face in coming academic year?
- How can our bodies support us with the different qualities (such as focus, presence, openness and pleasure) we may want to develop and embody in our work?
Expect movement, expect reflection, expect joy!

This session is hosted by the Mindfulness for Learning Community of Practice but open to all.
All bodies are welcome.This inclusive session is designed to accommodate participants with a range of physical abilities and lived experiences. No previous experience of mindfulness or movement is needed.
