Summer Mindfulness at Saybrook:  A Series of Mind-Body Practice Workshops and More!


For the summer term, the Saybrook Mind-Body Medicine Team is continuing the Mindfulness Moments offerings and also adding a bonus for May. During May, they are offering a series (3) of hour-long workshops on mind-body practices that are evidence-based and attendees can learn to do on their own. The bonus workshops are a valuable offering and can help with self-care during this hectic time.  As part of the Mindfulness Moments program, they are open to the public and will also be recorded.  Attached is a flyer with the dates and topics. The dates are May 8, 15, and 22 from 9am to 10am PT for the workshops. Mindfulness Moments will provide their regular twice-weekly offerings from June 2 to July 28 at 9:15 am PT (except July 3).

Mindfulness for Mind-Body Wellness Presentation

I gave this presentation some weeks back on #mindbodywellness with #experiential segments that can support our whole person health, especially during turbulent times. In this session, I described how mindfulness practices can contribute to whole-person wellness. Through experiential exercises included throughout the presentation, participants experienced different mindfulness techniques and learned how these can enhance individual self-care. #health #mindbodyspirit #mindbodymedicine #saybrook
