The Monthly Series
This is the monthly episode of the St. Margaret Foundation Mindful Break - a free 30-minute video with instruction on mindfulness, relaxation practices, and a short meditation to help you revitalize your life.
Stress is a natural part of life - but when it becomes overwhelming, it's hard to know where to begin managing it. Along with a short meditation, this episode will discuss the three stages of stress, the warning signs of burnout, how to Less the Stress, and an exercise for when you are caught in the web of stress.

What is the Course About? Each 30-minute session of The Mindful Break holds a 15-minute mindfulness video on topics such as staying focused, finding your purpose, eliminating head trash, and more. This is followed by a 15-minute meditation to help you feel revitalized, refreshed, and renewed right away. The sessions are sent once a week.
We originally created this course for our dedicated St. Margaret staff who work tirelessly caring for our patients. We know that stress affects your health, work, eating habits, and sleep. In 2022, we opened it to our donors and other supporters because we know you, too, are juggling many issues such as anxiety, grief, disappointment, and relationships. The response was overwhelmingly appreciative. The Mindful Break is an eight-session Mindfulness Course and Meditation series that will drop into your email every week starting Monday, April 13th for those who register. These exclusive sessions will stay live for a limited time. This series is available free to our donors, staff, and friends because we appreciate you.
Instructor: The course is taught by Mary Lee Gannon, ACC, CAE - the former President of St. Margaret Foundation - who is a graduate of the UCLA Mindful Awareness Practices Program, a graduate of Georgetown University’s Search Inside Yourself Leadership Institute created at Google, and an International Coach Federation Certified Coach (ACC), as well as a Certified Professional Coach by Duquesne University (PC).
