Mindfulness can help lawyers deal with high levels of stress and there is no doubt that working in stressful environments can lead to oversights, complaints and claims.

We’ll examine some strategies that improve our listening skills and lead to preparing for having difficult conversations. We will also explore ideas on how to integrate Mindfulness back at the office (or home office) and how to improve focus to improve performance.

This session is for those new to Mindfulness as well as those with an existing practice, to examine how Mindfulness in the legal office can improve risk management.
