By learning to pay attention to their immediate experience (what’s going on in their minds and bodies) while they’re online, people are able to see more clearly what’s working well for them and what isn’t, and based on these observations to develop personal guidelines that allow them to operate more effectively and healthfully. Levy will demonstrate this work by giving participants exercises they can do, both during the online program and between the sessions.</span><br style="font-size:12.8px"><br style="font-size:12.8px"><b style="font-size:12.8px">Presenter</b><br style="font-size:12.8px"><br style="font-size:12.8px"><b style="font-size:12.8px">David M.
