A satisfying
and meaningful life requires us to have a balance of acceptance and change with
the entire breadth of our emotions. The workshop offers an introduction to the various roles emotions can
play in our lives. We will explore a variety of mindfulness-based skills to help
participants better understand their emotions through body sensation and
action urges. Participants will discover
ways of tolerating difficult emotions and we will explore increasing
flexibility in a manner consistent with your personal values. If you are
interested in better understanding your emotional experience, learning
some new mindfulness practices, or having a more effective relationship with
your emotions, then please join us in this experiential workshop. Our
speaker, Michael Gotlib, Psy.D. joined Drexel's Counseling Center in August
2016. Dr. Gotlib is the group and workshop coordinator at the Counseling Center
and maintains a part-time private practice at the Center for Emotional Health
in Cherry Hill, NJ. Dr. Gotlib has extensive training in mindfulness-based
treatments from his clinical trainings at Princeton University, the University
of Iowa, the Yale Center for Anxiety and Mood Disorders, and the Yale School of
Medicine. Dr. Gotlib also works with non-clinical populations (coaching)
to foster psychological flexibility, self-compassion and vital living. Youtube Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQIyOGtTrZs Registration
