Summary

• Over 150 years ago, while walking in the woods, Henry David Thoreau wrote, “The thought of some work will run in my head and I am not where my body is. I am out of my senses.” Today, being present is much more challenging!

• Drawing upon research, you’ll discover how to strengthen the mindfulness skills that allow for everything from processing new information and integrating new behaviors to regulating emotions.

• In fact, helping clients reclaim reflection may be the single-most important building block you can offer for healing, well-being, calm, and compassion.

• In a world with little time to “stop and smell the roses,” help clients take greater control over their lives.

• Apply practices that encourage reflection and pause to maximize therapy during and between sessions through.
