Join us Thursday, Nov 14th from 6-7pm for a stress-reduction workshop with Dr. Amy Vigliotti. Amy will lead participants through a variety of 10-minute guided meditations. In between meditations, Amy will share stories and tips as to how the exercises can be incorporated into your life, including how to be mindful with daily activities like eating, working, and speaking with others. You will learn how to foster clarity in your personal and professional relationships, improve decision-making, simplify, and prioritize. The workshop will conclude with Q&A.

Exhausted but you can't sleep? Dread the idea of going to work? Can't concentrate or get anything done? Feel tense or on edge? Earlier this year, the WHO recognized burnout as an occupational phenomenon. Of course, many of us didn't need that official recognition to know that burnout is a real thing. In this small, 12-week group, you will recognize your own symptoms of burnout and regain your balance. You will receive support from others in a safe, trusting environment, and rediscover your purpose. Please contact Afshan at: (516)308-1551 or amohamedaliphd@gmail.com
