The Buncombe County Bar invites you to participate in a CLE series at no cost to our members. Please join your BCB colleagues for this year’s well-being CLE course taught by Laura Mahr of Conscious Legal Minds LLC. The five-week course, entitled "The Science of Steady: Mind-Body Skills to Regulate Stress in Challenging Times" begins on Tuesday, October 14, 2025 at 12:00pm on zoom.

This year's course is full of new content grounded in neuropsychobiology—the study of how the brain, body, mind, and emotions interact—this course offers a blend of theory and practice designed specifically for attorneys and judges who want practical, science-backed strategies to navigate the demands of legal practice with greater calm, clarity, and resilience. Each week's curriculum incorporates four cutting-edge neuropsychological frameworks--Mindfulness Meditation, Somatic Experiencing (SE), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Applied Polyvagal Theory (PVT)—to teach you how to connect with different physiological systems of the body that are impacted by stress in order to improve both your mental, physical, and emotional well-being. There is no fee for the course.

CLE Credits: Each week of this course has already been approved for one hour of North Carolina State Bar CLE credit, and may be applied to the North Carolina State Bar “Professional Well-Being” CLE requirement (formally called “mental health credit”) or general CLE credits. You will receive one hour of CLE credit for every class in the course that you attend live in its entirety. A Zoom poll will be administered at the end of each class to collect your name and Bar number for submission to the NC State Bar for CLE.

It would be wonderful to see you each week, as the material will build on the information presented in previous weeks. However, the content of each week’s session will “stand alone” so you'll be able to participate fully, even if you miss a class. Please join the classes when you are able!

This is the ninth consecutive year that the BCB is partnering with Laura to bring a cutting edge mindfulness course to our members. The BCB is excited to offer this opportunity for connection once again!
