Speaker: Martha Wooding-Young

Description: 

Grounded in neuroscience and based on traditional and modern approaches, the presentation explores the why and the how of mindfulness, getting beneath the surface to unlock the power of innate awareness. Sessions are interactive and include multiple short practice opportunities. I invite participants to actively grow emotional intelligence through exploring the power of empathy and compassionate engagement, and to enter more fully into embodied presence. I also discuss the elements of a successful in-house mindfulness program as well as common pitfalls.

Learning Objectives:

• Understand the why of mindfulness, and how the basic neurobiology works, to better recognize how stress arises in the first place.
• Learn three core practices to reliably activate the well-researched physiological and psychological benefits of mindfulness practice.
• Review the case for implementation of in-house mindfulness programs as an emotional wellness offering.
