Flourishing and Resilience FIG Instructor and Assistant
FIG Instructor: Megan Lipsett
Hi everyone! My name is Megan Lipsett (she/her), and I am a psychologist, health educator, and researcher focused on mindfulness, stress, resilience, and whole-person well-being. I serve as Co-Director of the Center for the Science and Practice of Well-Being at the University of Oregon, where my work explores how mindfulness, behavior change, social connection, and community factors influence mental and physical health. My research has focused on topics including stress physiology, resilience, chronic illness prevention, and flourishing, and I have led and collaborated on intervention studies examining how people build well-being during challenging times and major life transitions. My work has been supported through collaborations and training programs at institutions including the University of Oregon and OHSU.
Outside of work, I love hiking, weaving baskets, meditating, and spending time outdoors in Oregon forests.
