Landover, MD, October 13, 2020—RBmedia, a global leader in spoken audio content and digital media distribution technology, today announced that its audiobooks represent half of the shortlist for the renowned Booker Prize, three finalist spots on the 2020 National Book Awards list, and 44 New York Times bestsellers since the beginning of this year.

Created for healthcare workers, paramedics, police, and firefighters, “Self-Care and Mindful Resilience for First Responders” consists of eight distinct modules that introduce and teach mindfulness, insight, compassion, guided imagery, and breath work. The goal of compassion-based training is to ensure that first responders limit their exposure to trauma, fatigue, and burnout. This course provides them with tools to combat these potential outcomes of prolonged work in their environment, and it can help them recenter and balance if they are in the midst of experiencing these reactions.
