In this presentation, Joe Baillie will share about the unique benefits of Mindfulness-Based Recovery Skills (MBRS). Learn about key tenets of this approach, such as how to cultivate awareness of personal triggers and habitual reaction patterns and change your relationship to discomfort. These recovery skills can help create mindful pauses in the seemingly automatic process of relapse.
Learning to harness the pause also has applications to everyday life. This presentation will empower attendees to deal with stress, addiction, or other obstacles -- their own, or that of a client's or loved ones. Mindfulness can be a valuable tool in your journey towards wellness. Join us in learning how.
