Mindful Learning Lab

I'm so grateful to all the organizations who have trusted me to offer mindfulness trainings to their teams this year.

All of my classes are rooted in evidence based practices, most of which come from Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR). MBSR has over 40 years of research behind it but last month, a new groundbreaking study was released that found MBSR was as effective as use of the gold-standard drug — the common antidepressant escitalopram — for treating anxiety disorders. That doesn't mean it's a replacement for therapy but this is more evidence that mindfulness can be an extremely powerful tool when taught and practiced effectively.

Are you interested in learning more about mindfulness or think your team could benefit from it? I'd love to offer support or resources to help you get started. Let's encourage workplace wellness in 2023!

Daily meditation may work as well as a popular drug to calm anxiety, study finds Researchers compared a practice of daily mindfulness meditation to taking Lexapro to control anxiety symptoms. The meditators got equivalent relief, without the side effects.
