"The program's success is a testament to the perseverance of two dedicated Duke MD's and the need for mental training to support and assist college students as they navigate this difficult and uncertain time in their lives." -- Trish Kinney, HuffPost Blog "Mindfulness for the Next Generation is a useful guide for those readers looking to bring mindfulness education to the emerging adult college-student population.
