Establishing Mindfulness and Healthy Living With Maureen Wendling
Maureen Wendling is the Executive Director at Shanthi Project, an education nonprofit providing evidence-based mindfulness services to more than 4,000 children and adults annually across the Greater Lehigh Valley in Pennsylvania. Her background in government relations and higher education has helped her become an experienced leader in Lehigh Valley’s nonprofit sector, and she has helped develop and implement key strategies to advance organizations in their missions. She actively participates in silent mindfulness retreats and serves on the Board of Associates of the Lehigh Valley Community Foundation and Muhlenberg College, the Resilient Lehigh Valley Communications Committee, and Northampton County’s Suicide Awareness Task Force.
Maureen received her Bachelor of Science from DeSales University, completed her mindfulness training at the Myrna Brind Mindfulness Institute at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital, and an apprenticeship at the Center for Mindfulness at Lehigh Valley Health Network (LVHN). She received her Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction certification from Brown University.
In this episode…The world is full of stress, tension, and burnout. How can you give yourself compassion and find relief from intrusive thoughts? Rather than focusing on your thoughts, take inventory of your feelings.
When you suppress feelings, they tend to cause disruption elsewhere. Maureen Wendling recommends practicing mindfulness — considering your feelings is the best place to start. Being present with others can be difficult when distractions are present. One thing Maureen advises is time away from electronics to be fully aware of yourself and others. Acknowledge whatever distractions are keeping you from being present and intervene with mindfulness practices.
In this episode of Cornerstone Unplugged, JP Cavaliere sits down with Maureen Wendling, Executive Director at Shanthi Project, to discuss practicing a trauma-informed intervention: mindfulness. Maureen talks about recognizing your emotions through relatable forms, using meditation to reduce behavioral problems in children, and how to build mindfulness habits. Thanks for tuning in!
