Mindfulness

Mindfulness means being aware of what is happening right now without judging the moment or wishing it were different—living in the present. Practicing mindfulness improves our mental health and is something we can practice anytime and anywhere. It is valuable in coping with depression, substance abuse, eating disorders, couples’ conflicts, anxiety disorders, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. Mindfulness can also help relieve stress, treat heart disease, lower blood pressure, reduce chronic pain, improve sleep, and alleviate gastrointestinal difficulties. Everyone, including children, should learn mindfulness techniques.
