In our increasingly hectic and demanding world, we can find ourselves struggling with feelings of stress and anxiety. The pressures of school, parenting, work and life in general, contribute to making anxiety disorders in children and adults more widespread. Join Dr. Sileo as he discusses the types and prevalence of anxiety disorders in children and adults. He will provide an introduction to mindfulness, practical strategies that can be of great benefit in reducing stress and anxiety, and how to boost natural healing.

Dr. Sileo will engage the audience in some mindfulness exercises that will help cultivate a mindful way of being. A question and answer session will follow.

This lecture is geared toward adults and older students, but there will be a book signing of Dr. Sileo’s children’s book A World of Pausabilities: An Exercise in Mindfulness (available for purchase), at 6:30pm.
