Reignite Motivation, Reconnect with Purpose

The term "purpose" can feel like some existential mountain to climb. At Healthy Minds Innovations,  we see purpose as a practical skill you practice every day. Our brains are extraordinarily adaptive. Like sustaining your attention or cultivating compassion, you can train your mind to awaken to the sense of purpose that underlies everything you do. We’ve got the neuroscience to prove it. 

In this Healthy Minds Work learning lab, we walk you through a step-by-step process of connecting to your values to infuse your life with meaning. We will show you how to combat burnout by reigniting what inspires you in the workplace and beyond. She’ll also introduce you to the empirical evidence that supports these practices and how you can bring them back to your community.
