Harnessing Mindfulness Good Morning Parmjit I apologize for taking so long in contacting you. I wanted to let you know that the evaluations sheets we handed out after you did the session for our Divisional Day (way back in October) were all excellent. Every single staff person who attended your session was very pleased with it. They all found it very relaxing and said that they would enjoy a further session and recommend you to other departments who were having a department day similar to the one you presented your session at.
Also, I should mention that you may in the very near future hear from one of my co-workers asking you to do a session for our individual team. She is working on the logistics with our manager to see what we can do about having you come to one of our meetings.
Once again, I want to thank you for the wonderful session you did for us and wish you the best in 2009.
