What is Mindfulness?
-
Mindfulness is about learning to be present in the moment instead of ruminating about the past or worrying about the future.
-
We do this by learning mindfulness techniques such as practicing mindfulness meditation.
-
It also teaches us how to be more aware of our thoughts and emotions and to gently turn towards them - instead of avoiding them or trying to distract ourselves.
What are the benefits of Mindfulness?
-
Reduce stress, anxiety & depression
-
Make us feel better by making the “fight & flight” part of our brain less reactive
-
Help us to relax
-
Allow us to have choices about how we respond to a situation – rather than reacting to it. This will help us to have healthier relationships too!
-
Increase our self-acceptance and feelings of being O.K. just as we are (without needing to change/fix ourselves)
-
Improve our sleep
-
Increase our ability to focus & pay attention
-
Help in the management of pain

Improve our emotional wellbeing
