May 26 – Mindfulness: Bringing out our Inner Zen

Patricia Ruiz, Registered Clinical Counsellor

Dr. Joti Samra, R. Psych. & Associates

Pop culture might have led you to believe that mindfulness is about sitting still, closing your eyes, and trying to clear all thoughts from your mind. Although this can certainly be one way we can approach mindfulness, mindfulness at its core is about increasing our attention to the here and now – and focusing intently on the present moment. In fact, mindfulness is a practice that can be applied in your day-to-day life and does not require you to set aside any special dedicated time. In this session, attendees will understand what mindfulness is, and gain useful skills and strategies for implementing active mindfulness into their day-to-day work and personal lives.
