Mindfulness in Law Society is a national non-profit organization committed to enhancing well-being in the legal profession. The organization was formed in part as a response to The<\/a>\u00a0Path to Lawyer Well-Being Report<\/a>, a 2018 report that comprehensively explored the serious issues we face in our challenging profession, and made specific recommendations about how lawyers, law firms and other stakeholders can make a difference in creating positive change. Mindfulness meditation and other contemplative practices were specifically recommended in the Report, and the organization’s mission is to make these valuable resources more accessible to lawyers and legal employers.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
