For all of us who have trouble maintaining productivity, mental health and work-life balance, the solution lies in practicing mindfulness. Mindfulness allows us to be more present in the moment and can help reduce stress, anxiety, and other negative emotions.
We’re so grateful to be friends with Christina Arabolis, Founder of The Master Shift. She’s a powerful voice for the mindfulness movement and she’s graciously shared her advice on practicing mindfulness.
