An eight week series on mindfully exploring how the mind works, mindful meditation, and setting intentions for a growth mindset to start your week off right!

Everything we believe about ourselves, others, and the world around us - and the meaning that we consciously or unconsciously attach to those beliefs - lives in the mind. Join mindful performance coach, Yvette Trapani in this 90-minute experiential session on exploring how the mind works, mindful meditation, and setting intentions for a “growth mindset”.
