In a world that can distract us away from being present, you may be feeling you need to connect more with positivity. In the face of learning a new normal, especially in the midst of feeling fear, anger, sadness, or anxiety - mindfulness is a way for us to be present intentionally.​

The biggest question is how are to you cope when what has been familiar suddenly changes? Many of us struggle to discover a mindful daily routine while others seek advice on how to keep their mental health and self-care at the forefront, even more so when there are many uncertainties upon us. 

We want to discuss how to give yourself and others compassion during a time of difficulties. Submit your questions about mental-health-related issues, how to stay connected, concerns of feeling lost, or lacking joy - let's start the conversation to better your well-being.  Tune in to hear our discussions on these topics on our podcast "Green Shoe Conversations".
