Meditation

Meditation is an intentional practice where you focus inward to increase calmness concentration and emotional balance. It is one way to cultivate the skill of mindfulness, the ability to anchor one’s undivided and nonjudgmental awareness in the present moment. There are different types of meditation including breath awareness, loving kindness, mantra based, and gratitude meditation.

Tuesdays and Thursdays, 8:00-8:30 PM, Free Live Stream via Instagram Live

 

Meditation-Free Stress Management™

The most common workplace stress interventions involve intensive meditation practice and do not address specific situations in work and personal life that contribute to distress. We recognize that

intensive meditation practices can be off-putting to many individuals and for that reason offer Meditation-Free Stress Management Programs. These mindfulness-based programs, for individuals or groups, are based on cutting-edge evidence-based approaches and teach a variety of quick and easy ways to practice mindfulness that take less time than a meditation. They also teach skills for managing conflicts with coworkers, a primary source of workplace stress, as well as skills for managing emotions, and for tolerating distress.

Mondays and Wednesdays, 6-7 PM, via Zoom

 

Testimonials

“Dr. Lisa is insightful, engaging, and focused. With her help, I’ve strengthened my mindfulness skills and learned valuable strategies for navigating life’s challenges. Dr. Lisa understands me and supports me on my path to achieving my goals.”

“It’s rare to find a consistent space that invites both curiosity and compassion and simultaneously confronts the vulnerable challenges of unjustified feelings and unhelpful behaviors. Every week I enter the room with a challenge, either named or unnamed, sit alongside familiar faces — more often than not new strangers— and am connected by a universal problem. Through the process of mindful sharing and the learning of new tools, I leave grounded, validated, and secure in the weekly reminder I am enough, I have agency, and I have the responsibility to myself to continue unlearning and befriending my trauma in order to thrive.”

“I feel like a fundamentally different person than when I first started working with Dr. Napolitano.Through our work together, I’ve adopted new tools, healthier ways of thinking, and ultimately new behaviors that have led to completely different results in my life.

My relationships feel stronger, my career feels more grounded, and perhaps most importantly, my thoughts feel like my own again. I feel more in control of the direction of my life and the choices I make, which has been incredibly freeing and fulfilling.

The progress I’ve made with her has changed how I see life and what I believe is possible.I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone who is ready to invest in themselves and their growth.”
