Thank you to everyone who came out last Saturday to our 1st workshop: Attune to Yourself So You Can Better Attune to Others. We had a great time! Don’t miss the next 2 workshops in this mindfulness based series!

Workshop #2, Saturday, Feb. 15, 2-4PM
You Don’t Have to Feel Overwhelmed!
Use Mindful Awareness to Make Life More Manageable
Problems with your job? Family stress? Relationship worries? Do you feel you don’t have enough support? Develop tools to help you feel more balanced and less overwhelmed
• Learn to ground yourself and develop tools to self-regulate, especially in the moment of overwhelm
• Access the part of your brain that helps you find calm
• Make choices about how you react

Workshop #3, Saturday, March 1, 2-4PM
When Bad Things Happen:
Navigating Loss and Trauma with Mindfulness
A deeply-felt loss or traumatic experience can be hard to move through, whether it happened recently or years ago. If you’ve lost someone close, survived abuse, assault, an accident, illness, medical procedure, fetal loss, divorce or separation, this workshop can help you discover a new way to move through your experience.
• Build your capacity to be with the experience without reliving it
• Learn how your brain can help you cope
• Develop greater acceptance

Join Marice Mendoza, SEP and Terésa Stern, LMSW, SEP, directors of Mindful Parenting Brooklyn, for this mindfulness based workshop series. Each session will include presentation, experiential exercises, and discussion.
