Fernando Flores spoke at a lunch talk event at Berkeley Law on 9/25 to give us some insight on how to live a healthy life in law school and as a lawyer. He shared with us his background, and how after practicing law for over 10 years, he founded iMATER NOW to support attorneys in nurturing their 6 spheres of well-being: emotional, physical, occupational, spiritual, intellectual, and social. We must tend to these every day, just like we groom ourselves every morning. We did an activity where we shared our morning routines, and he said we should add a one minute activity to our routine every day where we say three things that we are grateful for. He told us that his secret power for well-being is GPA: Grit, Positivity, and Appreciation. Finally, Fernando said that the most important thing is to have faith in yourself.
