Thoughtful Thursday: Breathwork & Mindfulness for Social Workers
Thoughtful Thursday offers weekly breathwork practice and mindfulness activities for social workers in a welcoming virtual space designed to support reflection, grounding, connection, and emotional wellbeing.
Event Agenda
Thoughtful Thursday aims to provide a low-pressure, safe space to learn and grow while connecting with others.
Unless otherwise specified, many experiences are intentionally designed with an open-flow structure. Participants are invited to engage in ways that feel supportive and comfortable to them. Examples include:
- Camera on or off participation
- No cold-calling unless a hand is raised
- Anonymous Q&A options
- Anonymous survey participation opportunities
Each session may vary in focus and experience, so participants are welcome to attend as consistently or flexibly as needed.
