Dr. B, aka Wayne Benenson, Ph.D., has had lots of career opportunities to be a mindfulness coach: as an elementary and early childhood teacher (15 years), as a trainer in school-based peer mediation (12 years) and as a college professor (25 years). Since the beginning of the pandemic, he has offered mindfulness classes, via Zoom, to help students and adults cope with isolation, emotional regulation and managing distractions. Since August 2021, he has written a monthly blog on Mindfulness for the EVJCC newsletter. Read the latest one here.
