Mindfulness programs for creativity and growth.
The mind is a boundless resource for creativity, compassion, insight, and innovation, allowing us to grow, connect, and find meaning at all stages of life. It can also be a source of distraction, frustration, anxiety, and stress. At Mindfully Working, we design mindfulness programs that shift perceptions, strengthen community, and promote a greater sense of presence, belonging, and well‑being, all from the inside out.
what is mindfulness?
Mindfulness is a meditation practice that expands our awareness of the present moment by bringing a focused attention to whatever arises through a lens of curiosity, openness, non-judgment, and acceptance.
Significant studies in neuroscience and psychology have shown the practice to be profoundly beneficial
to mental, physical, and emotional well-being.
about mark
Mark Landsman, MMTCP Certified Mindfulness Teacher
My path to becoming a certified mindfulness teacher began with a deep interest in the mind-body connection and the science of neuroplasticity, which shows our nervous system’s remarkable ability to positively repattern. Today, my work is informed by 25+ years of meditation practice, somatic training in tai chi, yoga, and aikido, and nearly three decades as a director/producer navigating the high-pressure demands of the entertainment industry.
I received my professional mindfulness training and certification under the guidance of Jack Kornfield and Tara Brach through the Mindfulness Meditation Teacher Certification Program, the Awareness Training Institute, and UC Berkeley's Greater Good Science Center.
Through my company, Mindfully Working, I develop and implement mindfulness programs for a range of clients including: The Skirball Cultural Center, Public Counsel—the nation’s largest pro-bono legal services agency, Alliance for Children’s Rights, IKAR, American Film Institute (AFI), How We Feel—a joint venture with Pinterest and Yale University’s Center for Emotional Intelligence, as well as production companies and creative professionals in the entertainment industry.
As a filmmaker, my work has aired on CNN, HBO Max, Showtime, Sundance Channel, A&E, MTV, ABC, and PBS, and received nominations for Emmy, NAACP Image, and Independent Spirit Awards. I completed an MFA in Film Direction at the American Film Institute (AFI), and a BA from the University of Michigan.
I design and facilitate meaningful mindfulness meditation programs, both in-person and virtual, carefully attuned to the needs of each client.
