History
The Mindfulness for Students Club was founded by Miki Dezaki and Alex Haley in September 2005.
Miki Dezaki
Miki Dezaki was a Physiology student at the University of Minnesota, and has practiced mindfulness for several years. Miki describes the practice of mindfulness as something that has enriched his life in every way possible.
Alex Haley
Alex is a JD-MBA student at the University of Minnesota, and has been practicing mindfulness for ten years. Alex has practiced under the guidance of several well known meditation teachers including Thich Nhat Hanh, Joseph Goldstein, Sharon Salzberg, and Steve Armstrong. Alex attributes mindfulness practice to making his first year of law school a more balanced, enjoyable, and low stress experience.
