Radical Friendship in the Workplace: A Mindfulness Practice for Stressful Times


Presented by Kate Johnson via Zoom

When societal disruption leads to stress and overwhelm, the quality of our relationships can suffer -- including those in the workplace. But if we are able to maintain and even strengthen our relationships during difficult times, they can help bolster our hearts and sustain our energy so that we can not only avoid burnout -- we can also find the strength to keep pushing for societal transformation. How might time-honored teachings from the mindfulness traditions inform how we show up for ourselves and each other in difficult times? In this session with author and Buddhist meditation teacher Kate Johnson, we will explore how the Buddha's framework on radical friendship can help us practice relational mindfulness with our colleagues in the workplace, and make a huge difference in the quality of our lives.
