Stress, so often demonized, is profoundly misunderstood. In this session we'll explore the automatic, embodied nature of stress and understand the physiological impact of stress on mind and body.

Finally, we'll explore what mindfulness has to offer in terms of both individual stress management and systemic stress reduction.
