R&B: How can I apply my practice at work? Explore with us! 🧡

Updated: Feb 10

The first week of the Self-Care Toolkit focuses on the eight attitudes of mindfulness: non-judging, patience, beginner's mind, sense of humor, trust, non-striving, acceptance, and letting go. Each of these attitudes could easily fill the entirety of our full eight-week program that guides individuals and teams along the journey of bringing mindfulness into the workplace.

Guiding this journey isn't new for Copper Beech, but the Self-Care Toolkit is. Around this time last year, the Toolkit was still in the works and being polished in preparation for the partnership with the City of Hartford as part of the vision for a Mindful City.


With countless interactions and choices each day about how to approach a given situation or topic at work, we're all in the prime position to wonder "how might my practice be applied here?" 


When a team asks this question, an entire culture shift can occur and consistently evolve via moment by moment intention setting. Let's explore this together.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: Since 2012, Copper Beech Institute has offered space for reflection, connection, and transformation through mindfulness practice. In 2022, we deepened our compassionate action, dedicating ourselves more specifically to healing racial injustice and creating a greater sense of belonging for people of color in our programming.

​

In 2025, due to funding challenges, we reached a point of completion—the sunset of our organization. While Copper Beech is closing, the work of racial justice and mindfulness continues. This moment brings many emotions, yet it also offers us the opportunity to honor all that has been, and to close this chapter with the same love and intention with which it began while applying our efforts beyond the bounds of the institute.

​

We invite you to visit our blog to witness the impact of our last two years and beyond, and to explore our website as a reflection of all we offered. Final programming for Copper Beech Institute ceased in June 2025, and the office officially closed as of October 2025.
