Future Faces vice-president delivers workshop for WMCA Young Professionals Network

A Future Faces vice-president has partnered with the West Midlands Young Professionals Network (YPN).

Will Crawford, founder of quietnotec delivered a workshop for the network called ‘Proactive techniques for your mental wellbeing as a young professional’.

The workshop focused on making mindfulness accessible and practical, building tools and techniques that continue to strengthen your mindset and balancing your wellbeing and your professional goals.

The group firstly discussed the definition of mindfulness and the process of building a heathier mind and lifestyle.

They then looked at two practical meditations that help the individual to be more in tune and aware of their thoughts and talked about the importance of sustained practice.

Aysha Bateman, programme support officer at the WMCA, said: "At the WMCA Young Professionals Network we are always looking at supporting our members as whole people not just employees.

“After meeting Will through Future Faces, quietnote's accessible approach stood out for us and we found that even if mindfulness isn't really your bag the workshops can still be really helpful."
