Mindful Conversations Workshop

These monthly sessions at Solid State Books offer practical tools for handling difficult conversations with more calm and clarity — whether they’re with a partner, kids, strangers, coworkers, or yourself.

Each gathering will focus on a specific mindfulness or communication practice, such as listening without interrupting, speaking clearly under stress, working with silence, or pausing before reacting. Through simple exercises, discussion, and short guided practices, participants will learn realistic ways to reduce stress and create more space in everyday conversations.

The series is designed to be flexible and responsive, evolving based on what participants are navigating in real life. Come once or return monthly — each session stands on its own and offers tools you can use immediately. 

You’ll leave each session with practical tools to handle difficult conversations more calmly, communicate more clearly, and feel less overwhelmed.
