Wellness Minutes episodes

  • Season 4! Pursuing Mindfulness at work
    The phrase "Work-Life balance" implies a separation between work and life. But isn't work a part of our life? Also, how we do one part of our life impacts how we "do" other parts of our life. So bringing mindfulness to our work is one way to pursue wellness in general. Join me for Season 4, 21 days of reflecting on mindfulness at work.

  • Day 30: Mindfulness Saturdays

  • Day 27: Put on your oxygen mask first before helping others
    When you take care of yourself- your health and wellness can have a positive impact on others. If you don't refill your own cup but keep offering your cup to others- everyone loses from your ultimately empty cup.
