Jennifer Vroom, MS, CCC-SLP, will discuss how stress, anxiety, and social isolation negatively impact us and how the use of mindfulness and meditation strategies can help. Participants will gain a better understanding of how our brains are positively changed by implementing these practices and why they are particularly relevant to Speech-Language Pathologists, both personally and professionally. Jennifer will offer some practical mindfulness strategies that can be easily incorporated which have positive neurological benefits. Finally, key factors to consider before introducing such techniques into SLP therapy sessions will be discussed.
