• How Mindfulness Can Help You Avoid Legal Burnout, Continue to Competently Perform Legal Services, and Remain Ethically Compliant
  
  

  As attorneys, constant stress is often a part of the job. If we don’t effectively manage chronic stress, however, it has the potential to cripple our productivity levels and make it physically, mentally, and emotionally impossible to effectively advocate for our clients and ourselves. Further, we run the risk of running afoul of the rules of professional conduct.

  Instituting even one or two minutes of meditation and mindfulness into our daily routines can have immediate and far-reaching benefits in our professional and personal lives. Become your best self now. Join us as we demystify meditation and focus on the basics of mindfulness: what it is and isn’t, how to do it, and how to maximize its benefits. We will delve into specific methods of integrating mindfulness into your day-to-day law practice.

  This 60-min CLE session will empower you to:
  • Protect yourself from burnout
  • Improve focus and boost your overall productivity and efficiency
  • Curb anxiety and stress thru quick, effective “spot treatments”
  • Use mindfulness to enhance ethical decision-making and conflict resolution

  While it captures what we are going to talk about today, it does not capture the spirit of the moment in which this presentation was written: in the middle of the pandemic, when we were all working from home, or “WFH” as it has come to be known. That spirit I felt was captured by the following titles, but for one reason or another they did not make the cut.

• Bench Bar 2021: Neurodiversity in the Courtroom
  Convention 2021
  

  The legal system has a well-earned and longstanding reputation as a slow adopter of change. As Neurodiverse people (i.e. Autism Spectrum Disorder, ADHD, Dyslexia, PTSD) continue to participate in the courtroom setting, it is incumbent upon the judges and advocates themselves to recognize that great minds don’t always think alike. In order to accommodate different ways that we process information, courts and the lawyers that practice before them must appreciate and understand these differences and prepare cases that play to all strengths.
