Carving out time to practice the very thing that will help us to slow down can be a frustrating conundrum when racing from job demands to appointments to family responsibilities.

By bringing full awareness of your experience into any moment of your day, you’ll be better able to access peace, kindness and compassion.
We are thrilled to be equipping the staff of various city agencies this year with mindfulness tools that lower their stress levels and help them maintain focus and calm in challenging situations.

With SHINE, we created a space … so that regardless of staff position, they all began to relate positively to one another.”
