Any of your five senses can be used as an "anchor" to bring awareness to the present moment, even taste. Which means, YES, eating chocolate can be transformed into a mindfulness practice! Join the NuMinds team in the Recharge Zone (within the TAGT Marketplace) for a guided, slow motion, chocolate eating experience. Come for the chocolate, leave with epically calm vibes.

Together is better, and it’s great to be back at giftED! Whether you’re a first-timer or long-timer, you’re invited to celebrate and connect with your fellow attendees and TAGT exhibitors at the giftED gathering. Join your TAGT community in the TAGT Marketplace for cookies, cocoa, and connections!

You may know that through mindfulness, we can use the breath to calm, relax, and down-regulate our nervous system to manage anxiety. But the breath can also be a switch to bring us a super boost of energy, clarity, and vitality! Come to this session sans coffee (you won't need it for the rest of the day!) to experience a short guided power breathing practice to tap into your body's natural energy reserves. Leave feeling lighter, energized, and mentally clear. (Recharge Zone Mini-Sessions held in the Recharge Zone within the TAGT Marketplace)

"Who hears music feels his solitude peopled at once." - Robert Browning
Cultures around the globe have long known the benefits of communal rhythms - the first sound we ever hear is our mother's heartbeat! Rhythm improves people’s moods, restores balance, promotes healing, and provides a connection with one another. Music has been scientifically proven to release dopamine and lower cortisol levels, creating positive emotions and even healing our bodies from the effects of stress. Come relax and have fun in this session and add your rhythms to our communal drum circle--you'll leave energized and feel connected and grounded!
