Dr. Jeffrey Dusek and Rana Chudnofsky from the Benson-Henry Institute for Mind Body Medicine spoke with students Wednesday morning about the role of relaxation response in reducing stress, a timely topic with exam week quickly approaching. Representing the Institute’s Education Initiative—which collaborates with K-12 schools as well as colleges and universities—they explained the body’s physiological response to stress and then practiced breathing and relaxation techniques with students. Dr. Dusek and Ms. Chudnofsky were this year’s Samuel S. Talbot II ’65 Memorial Fund Speakers.
