Dealing with Change: Using Mindfulness to Respond in Difficult Situations with Cari Dubiel

To register for this webinar please follow this link: https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/8202735394820395787?source=Michigan. Sessions are free and available only to members of the Michigan library community. Registrants will receive instructions and a link to attend the session directly from PCI after they register.

Change is all around us, whether we like it or not. Often, change occurs without our control, and we must adapt to difficult situations. Mindfulness can help us stay in the moment and respond appropriately to strong emotions surrounding change.

As a result of this program, participants will:

• Learn to recognize when change is affecting them emotionally
• Be introduced to basic principles of mindfulness tools
• Learn when to use tools in specific change scenarios affecting libraries
• Understand what actions to take when facing change

Instructor: Cari has worked in public libraries for 24 years. She is currently a manager at the Twinsburg Public Library. She is also a writer and the co-host of the Indie Writer Podcast.
