We've heard a lot about the destructive potential of the Internet, but, in reality, it's just a powerful tool that can be used well or used badly--like television or the automobile. In this workshop, you'll learn how to use the Internet in a positive, enlightened, "mindful" (or simply a more intelligent) way. We'll discuss how you can improve your search strategies to find more of what you're looking for, locate online sites of particular value to you and your clients, understand and analyze your online profile and persona (did you even know you had one?), and avoid common time-wasters and energy sinkholes. You'll discover how to find self-help, journaling, and mood-tracking tools for your clients and how to use social-networking options like Facebook, LinkedIn, and the mysterious Twitter to create more practice opportunities and greater interaction with your clients.
