Mindfulness

Mindfulness is the practice of paying attention to the present moment without judgment. It is a way of intentionally bringing our awareness to our thoughts, feelings, sensations, and surroundings. Mindfulness can be practiced in formal meditation sessions or in everyday activities.

Mindfulness can be beneficial for people of all ages and backgrounds. It is particularly helpful for people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, or chronic pain. Mindfulness can also be helpful for people who want to improve their focus, concentration, and emotional regulation.
