Intro to Mindfulness

Mindfulness is a non-judgmental way of paying attention in the present moment, with kindness and curiosity. This helps us relate differently to life experiences and impacts how we show up for the challenges and joys of life. It opens us to the possibility for change, breaking habitual patterns and living from a place of response rather than reaction.
