Group Mindfulness Exercise (aka Mood Boosts) - Starting October 12th at 9 AM Eastern

Many of you know with the new design we significantly updated the new growth path. Feedback so far has been really positive. One of the activities you can do on the growth path that is very powerful is the mindfulness exercise. Mindfulness is now a core part of psychotherapy for many psychological challenges like depression, anxiety, substance abuse, relational challenges, and eating disorders. You can see a list of over 65 of them here.

One of the challenges with mindfulness is it can be a bit hard to do the exercises because it requires you to slow down, breathe, and listen. Like many things, when you have support, it is much easier to do things. So, what I'm proposing is a type of mindfulness/mood boost group. You can almost think of this as a sort of walking/running club. We'll meet every weekday morning at 9 am in the new mindfulness room. I'll open us up with a short affirmation, share the mindfulness exercise, and then we'll all listen to it right at that time. At the end of it, we'll reflect on how we feel. It'll help us all individually take a step forward our growth paths and also strengthen us a community.

I'll plan to start this on Monday 10/12 at 9am eastern. If it works, then we can expand times. Thoughts and feedback welcome on this idea and how we might be able to make it better. Thank you!
