Mindfullness

Mindfulness based interventions cultivate mindful awareness of the relationship between physical sensations, thought patterns and emotions. This awareness allows one to acknowledge physical symptoms as they arise and an opportunity to choose how to respond to the symptoms instead of reacting from conditioned patterns. This empowered choice promotes increased ability to manage symptoms and provides an opportunity to transform our relationship with ourselves and our life experiences.

Studies have demonstrated that mindfulness meditation is beneficial for:

  • Abdominal pain
  • Increased immune function
  • Overall well-being
  • Resiliency
  • Sleep
  • Symptom reduction
  • Symptom related anxiety
  • Stress reduction
