WELL NOW TALK SERIES

The Well Now Talk Series are events offered to you by Well Now, a community for mental health practitioners.

Each talk addresses one of three themes, or a mixture thereof:

1. A modality that other mental health practitioner may want to learn more about
2. Case studies that address the practicalities of working with a particular topic area
3. Succefful ways to build a private practice

As such the Well Now Talk Series is exclusively dedicated to mental health practitioners. Whether you are a counsellor, psychologist, psychiatrist, psychoanalyst or therapist, who is qualified and involved in the mental health profession one way or another, this would likely be of interest to you.

THIS EVENING'S TALK

This 1 hour talk will cover:

How does technology and social media impact our mental health?

What is mindfulness?

How does mindfulness work?

Experiential practices of mindfulness

This talk is suitable for practitioners and members of the general public interested in the topic of mindfulness.
