How can mindfulness  + social engagement reduce stress and increase joy?

Is our current political climate stressing you – or your teen – out?  Are other challenges making it difficult for you to concentrate, sleep, or connect with others in meaningful ways?  Do you ever feel overwhelmed, apathetic, anxious, or like you may be burning out?

This 6-week summer program for teens brings together Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction for Teens (MBSR-T) with social engagement.
