MINDFULNESS FOR DISPUTE RESOLVERS


With everything that's going on in the country and the world, it's natural to feel stressed, anxious, or overwhelmed. To help, we've asked lawyer and mindfulness expert Jon Krop to join us for a hands-on workshop on mindfulness, a simple mental practice you can use to reduce stress, cultivate well-being, and better serve your dispute-resolution clients. He will guide us through short exercises that sharpen focus, settle the mind, and cultivate resilience in the face of anxiety and stress, with extra focus on remaining calm, present, and receptive -- rather than reactive -- in difficult interpersonal situations.  Jon will offer suggestions for how dispute and conflict resolvers may offer some of these techniques to parties to help calm or relax their discussions.




JON KROP


JON KROP, the founder of Mindfulness for Lawyers, graduated from Harvard Law School, cum laude, and Brown University, magna cum laude and Phi Beta Kappa. After law school, he clerked on the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit and worked as a litigator at public-interest law firms in Los Angeles and New York City. He has taught mindfulness at Harvard, Yale, the Pentagon, and more than 50 top law firms, including Davis Polk, Cleary Gottlieb, Latham & Watkins, Skadden, and Sullivan & Cromwell. Jon has practiced mindfulness since 2006 and has studied with teachers from around the world, including psychologists, neuroscientists, and traditional Buddhist masters. In 2014, Jon completed a seven-month silent meditation retreat.
