Event Details

Join us for the second event in our series showcasing how small lifestyle changes can improve your health and wellbeing.

The event will feature three types of yoga and opportunities to try out other mindfulness and wellbeing activities.

This time around we’re turning our Innovation Lab into a yoga and meditation studio for the afternoon to give you the opportunity to learn some new skills and hear more about the science behind self-care.

We’re hosting a range of yoga classes, from chair yoga to something a little more energetic – followed by a meditation session to help you wind down.

Dr David Tod, from Lancaster Medical School, will join us for a chat and Q and A about using mindfulness and meditation techniques within the sporting arena, and outlining some of the evidence surrounding the benefits of these activities.

There will also be an opportunity to test out some virtual reality technologies from the University’s digital innovation team to show you how to track the benefits of the activities as they’re happening.
