Welcome to the Inner Circle for December 2018.

If you haven’t joined the Facebook Group yet, you can find it here. It’s a closed group so only the members will see discussions and comments.

Mindfulness is a term that is frequently used but rarely defined. Practicing true mindfulness encourages living in the present while it addresses the danger of distorted thinking. Staying in tune both mentally and emotionally improves perspective to enhance personal a professional success.

With our Improving Mindfulness workshop, your participants will begin to identify their own patterns of thinking. As they learn to practice mindfulness, they will cultivate positive emotions that will have a dramatic effect on the work environment.

Webinar objectives:

• Define mindfulness
• Develop techniques to make oneself more attuned to the present moment
