No career is without its challenges and stressors

Management’s Role

One of the hardest aspects of running a company or an agency isn’t knowing what weighs heavy on employees, rather it’s knowing what to do about it.

Bringing data-driven workshops from The Mindful Project into the workday, so it's not one extra thing to do after work, is one way to show you prioritze wellness.

Individualized Programs

Creating a training works for you and your team

Through an initial intake meeting with leadership plus anonymous employee surveys, we get to the heart of what exactly challenges your team.

The training framework is enriched with real-life examples, taken from the surveys, of ways your staff can employ mindfulness and stress reduction techniques to everyday situations.

Instead of shying away from acknowledging the stressors of both life and work, we help your employees learn to thrive and take better care of themselves.

“Resilience is not a one time event, but rather a skill to be practiced consistently over the course of a lifetime.”

What They’re Saying…

  • Words cannot begin to express my gratitude to Lauren and her service. As a police officer, I trust her with my life.

    “I have known Lauren for nearly 10 years, and I have continued to grow immensely under her guidance, wisdom, and teaching style. Aside from Lauren’s advanced training, education and wealth of experience in yoga, body mechanics, meditation, and mindfulness, she is one of the most authentic, pure, and kind-hearted people that I have the honor of knowing. I trust Lauren with my fellow officers, their health, care and wellness, but above and beyond her approval as a law enforcement driven, trauma-informed teacher, I trust her with my life.”

    Patrol Officer, Arlington Police Department

  • Lauren is a wealth of knowledge, is able to make everyone feel safe and relaxed.

    Our team spent four hours with Lauren, and it was amazing! We were able to learn so many skills that we can use in our personal and professional lives. Lauren is a wealth of knowledge, is able to make everyone feel safe and relaxed, and is well-worth whatever time and money you invest into this experience.

  • This is underutilized in policing, and can provide meaningful respite when we have no downtime.

    “Yoga and breathing exercises are not usually something one associates with police officers. However, I find myself practicing “tactical breathing” or breathing exercises when I am headed into a potentially dangerous situation, while in a pursuit, or a high stress situation. I even utilize when dealing with a particularly hateful suspect. Lauren’s sections were impactful, and I have continued to use breathing exercises when I’m not in the situations that are as high stress as mentioned before. I have started using breathing exercises for my three-year-old child when he is frustrated.”

  • I testified all day against anti-trans legislation here in NH and several times was able to use resourcing and breathing techniques.

    “I wanted to reach out and thank you again for the mindfulness series you provided to us. I testified all day Tuesday against anti-trans legislation here in NH and several times was able to use resourcing and breathing techniques to send a message of safety to my brain so that I could be most effective in that setting.”

  • Fantastic class! Way better than expected. This was the attitude adjustment I didn't realize I needed.

    “I knew a lot of this, because of my counseling degree, but you broke it down to where people without a degree can understand it. Very informative and educational!”

    “The police department is definitely improving as they bring in programs like this. More, more, more!”

    “We need spouses and family members in this training.”

  • As someone who struggles with severe anxiety, I found the tools and techniques to be very helpful.

    “It has made a huge difference in helping me to manage my anxiety and be more mindful of my thoughts, feelings, and actions. I have been at The Women’s Center for ten and a half years, and this was honestly one of the best and most helpful self-care things we have ever done in my opinion. I hope we get to take more classes with you in the future! Thank you again for working with us and the work you are doing in the community.”
