MINDFULNESS
"What study after study shows is that meditation and mindfulness training profoundly affects every aspect of our lives - our bodies, minds, physical health, and our emotional and spiritual well-being. When you consider all the benefits of meditation ... it's not an exaggeration to call meditation a miracle drug."

Introduction to Mindfulness
Learn the basics of mindfulness
​
Mindfulness meditation may be described as practicing a moment to moment awareness of our thoughts, feelings, bodily sensations, and surrounding environment without judgment. There is an ever-growing body of empirical evidence showing that mindfulness can help us regulate our mood and thoughts, build resilience in the face of stress and challenges, increase productivity, decrease pain, and cultivate calm and ease in our lives.
