Working with Mindfulness

REGISTRATION AND CONTINENTAL BREAKFAST 8–9 AM

SEMINAR 9 AM–3 PM

Mindfulness practices have been shown by neuroscientists to help develop a range of capacities that lead to success in organizations. In this seminar, Mirabai Bush will share her experiences of introducing mindfulness practices into diverse workplaces and lead discussion with participants. She will teach mindfulness practices adapted for the workplace, including sitting and walking practices to cultivate attention, insight, and a calm, centered presence as well as compassion practices to increase self-awareness and awareness of others. She will share exercises she helped to develop at Google for their company-wide program, “Search Inside Yourself”, including mindful emailing and mindful listening. Appropriate whether you have never tried a mindfulness practice or have been practicing for years.
