Fun Friday: Mindful Skin Care

Fun Fridays offer a refreshing mid-day break from work to indulge in physical, mental, or creative activity.

Health care providers are constantly faced with the demands of juggling patient care, teaching medical trainees, navigating administrative leadership roles, all while balancing family life. Oftentimes we place the care of others before our own self-care needs. In this Fun Friday activity, we will introduce the concept of Mindful Skin Care to the audience. Skin care routines and skin care products will be discussed during this activity.
