I am asked frequently to do a 1-hour CLE or simply to offer a guide meditation. I am always happy to offer these things to expose people to mindfulness practices or maybe even change their minds about them. The thing is, though, that learning mindfulness takes a bit more time.
What could really make a difference for people is not just learning about mindfulness, but instead learning how to practice it.
Mindfulness Takes Time to Learn
That is why I started this blog and wrote my book. I wanted to give the people who want more depth a way to find it. I wanted to create an easier path for lawyers and professionals like me who wanted to explore mindfulness and compassion.
That is why I am extremely pleased to announce that a new opportunity along these lines is available on PLI (Practicing Law Institute). PLI is one of the premier online education providers for lawyers and legal professionals. They reached out to me and asked me to pitch an idea about mindfulness programming for lawyers and legal professionals.
The New Course from PLI Offers In-Depth Mindfulness Instruction
I suggested a 3-hour course that taught the key practices from my book, How to Be a Badass Lawyer. These include mindfulness of thoughts, mindfulness of the body, and mindfulness of emotions. PLI gladly took me up on it and all three sessions are now available to watch on-demand.
These sessions are not for CLE credit, but that leaves more time for true instruction. In each session, you will learn the mechanics of each practice and try a meditation. You will understand basic safety for each mode of practice and how to address common pitfalls.
