Resources: Mindfulness for Adults
~ at home, work, and in the community ~
While I am creating programs throughout San Luis Obispo County, I am compiling a list of important, informational articles and video resources for myself, as well as to share with others, all in one place, right here on this page. There are so many reasons why mindfulness is beneficial to us at home, at work, and in our communities. See our similar list of resources for youth.
I will continue to add to these lists over time so be sure to check back! I have tons more to add to this list but it’s time for a mindful break! (Last edited 5/27/19)
