Increasing amounts of research show the clinical benefits of mindfulness on our physical and mental health. Join us for an interactive workshop on how to implement mindfulness in everyday situations, with an opportunity to explore the topic in depth and gain a deeper understanding of its impact across history. This workshop features special guest facilitator Peter Lin, Ph.D., licensed psychologist and associate professor at St. Joseph’s College.
