eMindful's Free Online Stress Reduction Classes
eMindful is a web-based mindfulness training resource. We are offering a number of free online classes in stress reduction to people affected by the recent events in the financial markets – see the list below for descriptions.
Developed and taught by researchers at Duke Integrative Medicine, these classes are conducted in virtual classrooms where students can see, hear, and interact with live teachers and other students.
eMindful's free classes will begin on Sunday, October 26th, and will be available periodically until November 18th at no charge. The courses are interactive and offer experiential exercises utilizing the techniques learned in class.

The following free classes will be offered:
Five Good Minutes - taught by Jeffrey Brantley, M.D., and based on the popular book by the same name.
