It’s hard not to bring a productivity mindset everywhere, including meditation. Dan Harris has described mindfulness practices as “where perfectionism goes to die.” We often try too hard with our mindfulness practices. This space will allow us to be more playful with short formal meditation and mindfulness-in-the-wild practices (mindful running, reading, eating).  We’ll support one another in bringing mindful presence into our everyday lives. 

Sessions are ongoing, and newcomers are always welcome. To register or ask questions, email Dianna Stencel, LCSW, at dstence@luc.edu
