Join us for a mindfulness event unlike any other where we’ll uncover the most common misconceptions, misgivings, and myths about mindfulness—and share some laughs along the way.
We’ll be guided by mindfulness teacher, registered psychotherapist, and performer Elaine Smookler. With her trademark comedy, wit, and refreshing honesty, no stone will be left unturned as we explore the real, messy, and sometimes hilarious side of mindfulness practice.
From the awkward to the downright outrageous, we’re diving deep into the stuff most people are too shy to talk about.
When: Saturday, June 15th at 4pm EDT
Where: Mindful Zoom
Cost: Free!
Alongside the laughs, Elaine will share practical insights and compassionate wisdom to help you navigate the challenges and barriers to mindfulness. Whether you’re a mindfulness newbie or a seasoned skeptic, there’s something here for everyone.
Got burning questions about mindfulness? Stick around for the audience Q&A session with Elaine. No topic is off-limits—we’re here to get real and support one another with compassion, while having a darn good time.
