Meditation Retreat for Law Professionals and Students

The Center for Contemplative Mind in Society is offering Meditation Retreat for Law Professionals and Students on September 11-14, 2008 at Menla Mountain Center, Phoenicia, NY: 

Mindfulness meditation can provide a practical tool for busy legal professionals to quiet the mind, enhance clarity and professional effectiveness, and restore a more peaceful balance to their lives. This program will include meditation instruction and practice, and will explore the interplay between contemplative and legal practices and the role meditation can play in the professional and personal lives of lawyers, judges, law professors, law students, and other legal professionals. There will be periods of silent meditation, lectures, and group discussions concerning skills training and the ethical practice of law.

The Center for Contemplative in Society has offered retreats for legal professionals for ten years, offering annual retreats in California since 2004. We are pleased to return to the East Coast to present this special program.

This retreat is co-sponsored by the City University of New York School of Law.

I am making plans to attend the retreat.  Who else is going?

Good for them. We need the law professionals to be peaceful.
