Mindfulness

Mindfulness is a quality of alert, open awareness. It can be defined as paying attention to present moment with curiosity and acceptance. Mindfulness is best strengthened by a regular meditation practice. This practice invites us to slow down, breathe, and observe our inner experience. Practicing mindfulness can give us the tools we need to stay calm, remain focused, and reduce distracting stressors and negative thoughts.  Mindfulness helps us to learn to view unwanted thoughts and feelings as merely passing mental events. With over 10 years of formal training to identify how mindfulness practices can be used as instruments of change, our programs draw from dimensions of spirituality, science, and social behaviour. Grounded in education and elevated by experience, our methodology is built on evidence-based practice.
