Being Mindful

Over the years, technology has become our BFF and made life and work easier. With the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic, countries have limited human gathering and interactions. As a result of social distancing and lockdowns, people and organizations have increased their reliance on and use of technology as they live, study, work, and shop from home.

Has the COVID-19 pandemic changed your relationship with technology? Are you glued to your digital devices for the majority of your day? Are so you plugged in that you are suffering from stress, anxiety, and a lack of sleep? Are you constantly distracted by email, texts, social media, and notifications? Is it difficult for you to focus your attention and concentrate for long periods of time? Has your productivity level decreased?

If you answered yes to one or more of these questions, you have landed in the right place! I am here to help you embrace technology in mindful, intentional, and healthy ways. With my support, you will gain digital wellness skills that will help you create tech-life balance.

When we work together, you will learn the Thriving Mindfully Academy‘s heart-centered approach to being the REAL YOU in your life and career.
