Polly Young-Eisendrath: The Human Self is Interactive: What Does that Mean?

This is the third webinar in the weekly series “Making Contact: A Series of Conversations with Polly Young-Eisendrath, Ph.D.”

Bringing mindfulness into our relationships, especially in times of emotional distress, will allow you to make contact with yourself and others in a whole new way. Each week, Polly will give a short introduction to the topic and then give you a chance to go into depth about your own concerns on these topics that are so important in our lives right now.
