There is Help; There is Hope.
It is no secret that being a lawyer can be incredibly stressful. Trying to manage difficult clients, complex cases, and demanding deadlines while having a life outside of work can feel impossible at times. Left unchecked, stress can have severe impacts on our physical and mental health and on a lawyer’s ability to comply with ethical obligations related to competence, diligence, and communication. This program will not only teach lawyers about the health risks related to stress, but how mindfulness and meditation can help with reducing the risk of stress-related problems in their law practice to allow lawyers to thrive personally and professionally. Lawyers will also learn how to identify signs of stress in themselves and in their colleagues along with practical strategies and resources for supporting well-being in the workplace. Attendees will also experience a brief guided body scan as an introduction to meditation along with resources for managing stress and developing a consistent mindfulness practice.
