Mindfulness in 5 Songs! (keynote/workshop/performance) Eric has created a simple and direct mindfulness program that uses his children's books to explain mindfulness philosophy and five original songs to help teachers and students (elementary, middle, high school) begin and maintain a successful mindfulness practice. With this pragmatic approach all you need to do is play one song each day. Songs help make mindfulness meditations simple, compelling, and effective. They also help us remember the ideas and put them to work in real-time situations. The songs will be available online for the audience to begin their own practice.
