“Mindfulness” is the hot new buzz-word sweeping through education, psychology, corporate consulting, and just about every domain of our modern lives. From 60 Minutes to the New York Times to the cover of TIME magazine, mindfulness appears to be hitting the mainstream like never before. But what does it mean? And how does it help? During this one hour experiential workshop, we will explore the benefits of mindfulness and learn how to train our attention to the present moment with a kind, open curious attitude.
