Cheryl Tchir and Danielle Anderson will be presenting on the Mindfulness at the 7:30 PM Speaker Meeting. They will be speaking on how it can help lessen the stresses of living with mental illness in the family and the benefits they have received in their own lives. They will review what mindfulness is and will guide us in a few simple exercises.
Mindfulness has been practiced for over two thousand years and has become increasingly used in working with persons with a a mental illness and persons dealing with the stresses of caregiving. This presentation will provide you with information on a very valuable tool in dealing with the challenges of mental illness.
