It's 10am... Must Be Time for a Wellness Break
So excited to be included in the article, "Breathe in... and out" from Chamber Business News. Of course I'm thrilled about the profile on the benefits of mindfulness and M2 mentions, and I also love the broader perspective on the power of breaks. More and more companies are recognizing the positive impact of pausing during the workday, allowing employees to recharge and boost productivity. The Greater Phoenix Chamber of Commerce is leading the way, providing resources for loc

Tandem with Tater Tot
It’s not every day that I glance out the studio window to see a miniature horse walking by. But that’s just what happened at A.T. Still University. Mindful Monday included M2 and the opportunity to interact with Tater Tot (who was incredibly soft, by the way). Animal therapy is also an evidence-based approach to stress and anxiety relief, so it makes sense. Super cool place! #mindbody #stress #stressmanagement #mindfulnesstraining #gymforthemind #mentalfitness #workplacewelln

One For the Record Books!
Employee engagement at PayPal hit it out of the park yesterday. The Opportunity group sponsored #MindfulMonday, and 57(!) people showed up for a 10-minute mindfulness class over a 2-hour period. That’s a record, folks! I’ll let a few testimonials sum it up… #employeeengagement #employeewellbeing #gymforthemind #stressmanagement #workplacewellness #mindfulworkplace #mindfulnesstraining #mentalfitness

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

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
