Listen With Your Eyes
In April, M2 donated a session to The Joy Bus fundraiser auction to contribute to their incredible service that brings free meals to homebound cancer patients. The winner of the session was the medical director of Family Comfort Hospice, and he gifted the session to the staff. How perfect is that? I’m kind of in awe of these people, who work to bring physical and emotional ease to patients and their families at the end of life. Can you imagine how much kindness, grace and pre

Enough
Last year I spent an impactful weekend at 1440 Multiversity attending Tara Brach's workshop, "Radical Acceptance." One recurring word she used resonated with me: "...enough." Strong enough. Good enough. You are enough. This quote reminds me of that mantra. #awareness #wellness #selfcare #selfcompassion

Mobile Mini Wellness Day
I was blown away by the curiosity that met us at Mobile Mini Wellness Day. We offered eight 10-minute classes, and they were all hopping-- in a still, quiet, mindful way. Two employees visited twice! The CEO tried a class. Bonus: I unexpectedly ran into a former workout buddy I hadn’t seen for a while. Thank you for inviting us; we loved how openly and graciously we were received. #stressmanagement #mindfulnesstraining #awareness #mindbody #gymforthemind #mentalfitness #emplo

Mindfulness Summit ASU
Honored to contribute to the first annual ASU Mindfulness Summit. I laughed and was inspired by Dr. Michelle May from Am I Hungry and Dr. Barry Kerzin from Altruism in Medicine Institute, and met old friends and new. Thrilled to see how mindfulness invites more curiosity and enthusiasm each day here in the Valley of the Sun. #awareness #mindfulness #meditation #community #wellbeing #wellness #mindbody #amihungry #altruisminmedicine

Mesa Community College Wellness Day
Had an amazing day Mesa Community College. Lots of people dropped in, from first-time practitioners to retreat veterans. It was a great wellness event that also included a nature walk, yoga and rock wall, among other things. MCC is fortunate to have faculty who have worked consistently to make mindfulness part of the dental hygiene curriculum. Students here practice mindfulness and use it as a tool to enhance their personal well-being as well as apply techniques to help patie
