The Astronomy for Mental Health course invites facilitators, educators, and outreach professionals to explore how astronomy can nurture reflection, mindfulness, and human connection. Through five practical modules, you’ll gain the knowledge and tools to design safe, inclusive activities that use stargazing and cosmic perspective to promote mental well-being in everyday settings. Grounded in psychological science and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), the course blends evidence-informed practice with creative astronomy engagement. Join a growing global community using the universe as a resource for calm, curiosity, and connection.
