Mindfulness for Judges [NJC]
November 1-4, 2021; Sedona, AZ. Mindfulness is the practice of cultivating non-judgmental awareness in the present moment. This four-day program delivered by The National Judicial College is an opportunity to pause from the many complexities of being a judge and find some space to breathe and reflect. It is a practice of learning to pay attention to our thoughts, emotions, and physical sensations and acknowledging whatever is present and using that information to respond to the unfolding of our work and lives.Â
