Mindfulness is “keeping one’s complete attention to the experience on a moment-to-moment basis in an open and non-judgmental way.”

Mindfulness allows us to be with our thoughts, feelings, sensations in a non-judgmental way. This makes room for acceptance and self-compassion.

Mindfulness is evidence-based to increase our health, wellbeing, and relationships.

Research has found that mindfulness exercises offer extensive benefits that span mental, cognitive, physical, and social health.

Mindfulness can help:

• Reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression¹

• Decrease stress, overwhelm, and worry¹

• Improve overall health and well-being¹

• Increase cognitive function: focus and attention²

• Support intuitive eating³, connection to body cues (hunger, satiation), and body image⁴

• Improve mental health⁵

• Lower blood pressure, cortisol, and other biological markers of stress⁶

• Lower inflammation, boost the immune system, support chronic pain + chronic conditions⁷

• Improve relationship quality⁸ and increase pro-social behavior⁹

I lead a mindfulness group about twice a year, virtually via Zoom. Please reach out or check the events page to see when the next group will be or get on the waitlist.

In group, we learn evidence-based mind-body techniques that not only help relieve stress, anxiety, and depression but also provide a lifestyle change that can sustainably shift your stress response to be more resilient, emotionally flexible, and adaptable.

We will engage in breathwork, meditation, somatic movement, and values-based alignment, as well as self-compassion techniques.
