Did you know you could get a DEGREE in Mindfulness Studies?

Well, Wendy Lund did and she’s using that knowledge to help the entire fire service. In today’s episode, Wendy and I talk about weird things Canadians say, her unique degree, how she uses her experience to support Fire and EMS, Reach for Resiliency, #TOBI, and her business Wellth Management, LLC.

With over 3 decades of experience as a Professor of Health Sciences, Wendy understands the physiology and pathophysiology of ease and dis-ease. She became increasingly concerned over the educational gap that existed in preparing first responders to engage with trauma and tragedy and the growing numbers of death by suicides in vulnerable populations.

Motivated to fill this gap, Wendy went back to school herself in her early 50s. Wendy’s graduation in 2017 from the University of Aberdeen makes her one of very few globally with an MSc in Mindfulness Studies. Her research built a case for why proactive strategies matter in training and sustaining a resilient mind.

Grateful for her career in academia, she retired early to provide others with an understanding of how to create and cause your mental health, not simply avoid disease.

She founded Wellth Management to fill a gap and to inspire individuals and organizations to redefine wealth using evidence-based theory and strategies to create wellness and build stress tolerance.

So what, now what?

Mindfulness doesn’t have to be hippie-dippy. You can be mindful without even ever closing your eyes! Tiny tweaks in understanding how your mind works can help you navigate scenes skillfully.
