The Nonprofit Practices Institute (NPI) is excited to offer a 5-week drop-in series designed to empower nonprofit leaders to take an active role in the management of their health and wellness.
This “Drop-Into Mindfulness Series” will highlight key points on what Mindfulness is and how it can be used to effectively manage stress and increase attentional skills. This will be done via practicing a mix of standing, walking or seated practices. Each session will focus on a different Mindfulness concept and practice to give employees a break from their work, mentally and physically. The practice often leaves people feeling refreshed and focused.

“My work has been focused in the fields of psychology, clinical social work and Mindfulness & Integrative Health. The heart of my work today is deeply influenced by my own lived experiences through two decades of depression, an eating disorder and chronic pain. Practicing self-awareness and Mindfulness along the path were crucial to my healing. Today, my focus is to be present for myself and those around me— to meet the life that is here in each moment, as best I can.”
