Mindfulness Practice before ISITDBT 2015

by Kelly | Nov 7, 2015 | Conference

A great opportunity for some mindfulness prior to ISITDBT on Nov 12.
Randy Wolbert MSW, LMSW, CAADC has generously agreed to lead mindfulness that morning. See below:

I would like to extend an invitation to any interested ISITDBT participants to a morning mindful sit prior to the start of the 2015 ISITDBT conference.

Having your own mindfulness practice is an important tool for every DBT practitioner. Mindfulness has been shown to decrease suffering and increase happiness. I can’t think of a better way to start what will be a great day and a great conference.  I regularly try to find opportunities to sit with like minded friends as this is a great way to enhance my practice.

No preparation is required, just come to room 4M at the Chicago Hiltonn from7:30 – 8:00 AM.  We will engage in a period of sitting meditation.

See you all in Chicago.

Mindfully yours,
Randy
