The P. Michael Mahoney Chapter: Mindfulness & Resiliency CLE
April 30, 2021 @ 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Mindfulness & Resiliency
Friday, April 30, 2021 | 1 PM – 4 PM CT
Free CLE on resilience in stressful situations, increasing resilience in the age of Covid-19, and mindfulness and moments of choice. The legal profession is an inherently challenging field requiring its members to zealously fight to overcome challenges for both their clients and themselves. The intense demands of the profession combined with the high rates of substances abuse and mental health issues confirmed by recent studies makes cultivating healthy skills for overcoming the challenges and stressors of our field a MUST. Participants in this program will learn about the biological/medical aspects of stress, why attorneys are a vulnerable population, how the science of resiliency is useful for attorneys, and how to practice mindfulness.
