Hi all,
I’m open to ideas and suggestions for workshops for LPC’s in Region 3. Got any ideas or thoughts? Even if you are in another region, or know of a LPC who is, I’d like to combine workshops for all members. We habe now opned these workshops to other healthcare professionals. Please pass this note along to any interested parties.

Description: Mindfulness has been described as a particular way of paying attention, on purpose, in the present moment, without judgment. The key component of most meditation practices, it is a skill that can be developed by anyone to transform how we experience life. This presentation will provide an overview of mindfulness, describe the difference between the “doing” and “being” modes of mind, examine the multidimensional phenomenon of pain, and show how mindfulness practices can be used to transform the experience of pain. Experiential practices and real-life examples will be used to illustrate key points in the presentation.

She completed her internship at Duke University Medical Center in 1991 and was on faculty at the Duke University Diet and Fitness Center for the next 7 years.

such as stress management, PTSD in the Military and adoption and special needs children.
Upcoming workshops will begin Friday, January 22, 2010 and continue on a regular basis every two months.
