Jeanne and Maureen come from solid business backgrounds and share a resonating viewpoint on the shortfall in mindfulness training crucial for both personal and professional growth. Mindfulness nurtures vital qualities like emotional awareness, resilience, and effective communication. Beyond enhancing professional endeavors, mindfulness invites us into a space of presence and equilibrium, offering tools to navigate stress and anxiety.
“In my mind, the inspiration for this fund was twofold: 1) to remove financial barriers to participation in any of our mindfulness programs by community members, and 2) to grow and diversify our team of mindfulness instructors to reflect an increasingly more welcoming and inclusive learning environment for all members of our community." – Mariann Johnson
