What is mindfulness?

Mindfulness teaches you to notice how you are in the NOW. This is not always the same as wanting things to be a certain way. It’s not about learning to feel or think in a specific way, but more about what you can notice about what you feel or think and how to approach it differently. Mindfulness helps you stand stronger in your power, making you feel confident about who you are and what you want.

What will you learn?

By training your attention, you will learn to:

• Focus better
• Manage stress more effectively
