Last month, we introduced a new resource that can set you up for success as a learner. This resource remains available for free for our blog readers for the next ~60 days. If you haven’t accessed the EMindful website yet, let me tell you a little bit about what you’ll find there.
First, you’ll fill out a 4-question survey to establish a baseline of how you emotionally cope with stressful situations. Next, you’ll indicate your familiarity with mindfulness (in 3 simple steps). After that short-and-sweet get-to-know-you introduction, the website’s many resources are revealed.
EMindful’s resources fall into 38 categories, including stress, Covid-19, sleep, relationships, anxiety, focus, happiness, performance and effectiveness, communication. I selected these three: resilience, leadership, wellbeing. Fascinating material, providing relevant and practical strategies.
Exploration of the website starts with a 2-minute video called “What is Mindfulness?” I would give a summary, but I think you should watch it for yourself! A tour of the website reveals that there are many live programs, with a daily schedule of guided mindfulness practices.
There are many live programs (multi- and single session) on topics such as weight balance for life; stress less, live more; social eating and holiday weight loss (a single session happening next week on 10/29). If you don’t want to be tied to someone else’s teaching schedule, there are also on-demand programs on topics such as enhancing performance, emotional intelligence, avoiding burnout, purposeful decision-making.
So, how will these mindfulness resources help someone become a better learner? I have an example of something that just happened today. One of my ESL (English as a second language) students came to our one-on-one session today emotionally upset about events happening in her home country (far from here) that she cannot change. She was so distracted that she couldn’t concentrate on her schoolwork. Luckily, she is familiar with mindfulness and we were able to use some mindfulness strategies to re-focus her brain away from the emotional drama and toward today’s lesson plan.
I encourage you to visit the EMindful website today to make the most out of the remaining free trial period we’ve arranged for our readership.

This site provides really useful programs. I signed up for Weight Balance For Life, a once a week 60 minute program run by Jim Austin. When I miss a class or want to view it again it's as simple as clicking the "Your Schedule" tab at the bottom right of my screen. Jim gives helpful tools and tips on how to better yourself and encourages the group to share and comment on their own ups and downs- You get the feeling of both one one one counseling and a kind of group therapy in one. There are so many other programs available as well. Truly something for everyone. Who can't use a little daily mindfulness?
