Media, Music and Mindful Engagement
Music and media do more than entertain us. They shape our moods, influence our thinking, and affect how we show up for ourselves and others. In this interactive session, we’ll look at how the songs we stream and the content we scroll can lift us up, calm us down, or quietly pull us off course. You’ll learn practical ways to notice those effects, be more intentional about what you take in, and use music and media as tools for focus, wellness, and connection.
