MINDFULNESS
What is mindfulness?
MINDFULNESS is simply… NOTICING WHAT IS HAPPENING RIGHT NOW.
Mindfulness is the practice of purposely bringing your attention to the present moment and noticing it without judgement.
Why practice mindfulness?
Mindfulness studies on the brain have found that it is a key element in stress reduction and has direct impact on happiness and overall well-being.
Mindfulness also decreases the brain’s 'Default Network' — or tendency to ruminate, which helps decrease anxiety and depression.
While all the exact neuropathways are unknown, mounting scientific evidence shows mindfulness may even be the “magic bullet” for overall preventive health if there is one.
Mindfulness helps to calm the Vagus Nerve, one of the central nerves controlling many of the autonomous body functions we don’t even think about and often take for granted—such as heart rate, breathing, ability to swallow, and perspiration.
