Pause and Relax: A Mindfulness Practice Day for Educators

June 23, 2019 @ 10:00 am - 4:30 pm

with JD Doyle and Jonathan Relucio

Open to All Educators

Teachers do important work that influences all our lives. The many challenges from this path of service make it difficult to find time for self care and may lead to feelings of overwhelm. During this day for educators, we will learn practices that can be easily integrated into daily life and that benefit you and the community (both students and colleagues). The day will include meditation, mindful movement, heart practices and other resources. We will offer background in neuroscience and brain research that describes the healing impact of these practices to mitigate the effects of chronic stress and secondary trauma.

Space is limited and registration is requested.

Cost: There is no registration fee for attending this event, nor most EBMC events. However, EBMC is not independently funded. The Center and the teachers will be sustained only by your voluntary donations (the practice of generous giving, or “dana”). Please donate generously, in proportion to your ability:

* Either online (you will be offered an opportunity during the online registration process to donate to EBMC; the teachers will not receive any part of this online donation).
* Or at the event, in the two baskets at EBMC, one for the Center, the second for the Teacher.

Thank you for your generosity. EBMC will be only be sustained through our collective generosity.

Fragrance-free: In order to protect the health of community members with environmental illness, please do not wear fragranced products (including “natural” fragrances) or clothes laundered in fragranced products to EBMC.

EBMC is wheelchair accessible.
