Upcoming Webinar for September: Mindfulness

This workshop will teach the basic concepts of mindfulness and how to incorporate it into our everyday lives. Participants will engage in a short breathing exercise; exploring their world through their senses; and learning how to expand their attention and focus through mindfulness practices. The goal is to incorporate these techniques into all aspects of their lives, at home, in school, at work, and when interacting with others.
