  • 10/25 Mindfulness for Emotional Strength Webinar

    In honor of National Work & Family Month, join this virtual session on Tuesday, October 25th from 12pm - 12:30 pm on Microsoft Teams.

    Emotional strength consists of being able to answer in an open way about our emotions, without avoiding those that are more difficult to manage; being able to identify them, as well as managing them adequately, and accepting our own vulnerability.

    Sometimes we don’t allow ourselves to feel our emotions, sensations, or experiences as they are. We avoid seeing ourselves and allowing other to see us in a fragile and unprotected state. But experiencing what displeases us is necessary given that it represents our personal growth.

    In this mindfulness session, we will discuss how we can improve our emotional strength and how accepting our vulnerability makes us stronger.
