March 25: Legal Lunchbox™ Series: Yoga to Stay Calm, Focused & Ethical

Title:
Legal Lunchbox™ Series: Yoga to Stay Calm, Focused & Ethical
WSBA Legal Lunchbox Series
Description:
Join us for an enlightening CLE that integrates the ancient wisdom of yoga with the modern principles of legal ethics.
First, we’ll briefly discuss yoga: what it is, what it is not, and the sheer breadth of what yoga encompasses. Second, we discuss yogic concepts to help you stay calm and focused, including how a meditation practice creates more time in your day, how breathing helps you stay present and best able to say no when needed, and how not to let other people’s angst become your angst.
Lastly, we spend approximately one hour on yoga ethics, discovering that seven out of eight limbs of yoga don’t focus on postures, but instead on morality, ethics, conscious breathing, concentration, focus, and meditation. We delve into a comprehensive discussion of how yoga’s ethics and morality systems provide a fresh understanding of the MRPC through the lenses of yamas (universal morality) and niyamas (personal behavior), such as how these tenets help us remain diligent (MRPC 1.3) and guide us in representing our services (MRPC 7.1, 7.2).
