    Pause, Relax, Reset, and Restore 

    Many of us experience cognitive overload and burnout during this time of year. Intentionally taking care of ourselves is key to our overall wellbeing. In this gathering, we invite you all to join us for some mindful and self-care practices that show us how important it is to keep our bodies healthy to nurture a healthy mind. Bring a friend, grab a blanket or pillow to pause, relax, reset, and restore. Join us with a cup of tea/coffee/hot chocolate and relax. You are in for a treat!   

    Facilitated by Dr. Stefanie Baier, Hima Rawal and the GTATLC
