Tech No? Uploading a Mindful Life in the Digital Age
A conversation at the Concord Free Public Library

Parents and teens, we all look at screens for hours - what does science say about our habits? Current neuroscientific evidence reveals what happens in our brains and bodies when we connect digitally vs. in person, and how this relates to well-being.
Join us for a special conversation with Susan Reynolds of Mindhood, a bi-coastal benefit corporation that offers in-person digital mindful wellness training, and Lara Wilson of Be Well Be Here, Concord’s non-profit mindful wellness collaborative. Learn how Mindhood’s research with young adults reveals ways in which screen time impacts mood, intention, relationships, and wellness. Try a few quick experiments to see how digital habits may be impacting your actions and reactions, and discover ways to shift toward choices that enhance overall health.
The conversation will take place at the Concord Free Public Library main branch at 129 Main Street on Saturday, January 5 at 3:00 pm. Free and open to all. For more information, please visit www.concordlibrary.org.
