Hello Everyone,

As you know, I am a huge proponent of the "super power" that is mindfulness. I am excited to start hosting all-staff mindfulness training this year, in addition to the monthly mindfulness drop-ins that I started last year.

You might be interested in mindfulness but think, "I don't know where to start!" That's why I want to tell you about Dan Harris' Ten Percent Happier, which is an engaging and effective way to better understand meditation and build a practice that sticks.

The folks at Ten Percent offer a Business Starter Pack that unlocks access to several of their most popular topics and courses. I've signed KCC up for the Business Starter Pack, meaning you can get access to these great resources for FREE!

Instructions on how to download the free app and access the starter pack are below. I shared this information with the mindfulness drop-in group over the summer, and am sharing it with all staff now in the hopes that you'll check it out and find something useful.

If you ever want to discuss anything related to mindfulness, I welcome you to reach out to me to chat!

Wishing you a peaceful and happy week,

Jeanne

P.S. There are even more great mindfulness resources on our website at www.kenchild.org/mindfulness
