Topics & Speakers

Keynote:
Manufacturing Mindfulness for Growth and Renewal
Harriet Stein, RN, MS

Do you find yourself having to rapidly respond to many things at once? Are you yearning to just have some space to think? Do you wake up in the middle of the night concerned about work, and then start your day in a state of constantly feeling tired and overwhelmed? Harriet will review how to easily and quickly develop a Mindfulness practice to help enhance your performance and allow you to sleep at night.

During this interactive session, learn how to:

  • Easily build a Mindfulness practice into your day,
  • Improve your awareness which will enable you to have an increased ability for clarity thus fostering greater decision making skills, and
  • Quickly create space in your life to accomplish what you want to achieve be it less stress or a better night’s sleep.
