Thirty to forty percent of sick-leave claims are related to conditions such as stress, depression and anxiety. Being mindful of mental health is as vital as caretaking one’s physical health. Research findings in mind-body medicine, neurobiology, and positive psychology, have recognized that there are specific practices for supporting flourishing and optimizing psychological well-being. This session is based on those findings.
