Greetings!

Fifteen wonderful people completed Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) this month. I'm continually inspired and delighted by the intelligent, curious, and friendly people with whom I come into contact at Integrative Mindfulness. I've posted some of their reviews of the course here.  

 

Thanks to the inspiration of my own coach, Lynne  Pietrzyk of Shift and Wake Up , and a clever MBSR grad, I'm adding a new feature called Zen for Ten, free weekly 10 minute guided mindfulness meditation practices that you can access anytime you want to shift from doing to being. Here's the first installment:
