Mindfulness is the practice of being fully present and aware in the moment. The key factors of mindfulness are acceptance and compassion—but without judgment.

Rooted in both ancient contemplative traditions and modern psychology, mindfulness invites awareness of thoughts, emotions, and physical sensations as they arise without being overly reactive.

In a world of distractions, living in the present moment can be difficult. The noise and distractions in our lives have increased exponentially: ubiquitous cell phone use, algorithm-driven social media, divisive political discourse, civil unrest across the globe, and the busyness of our own lives. When we are mindful, we are paying attention to what is happening in our bodies and hitting pause to the noise of the world that surrounds us.

At Mind Body Healing Arts, mindfulness is at the heart of everything we do. It’s a bridge between modern medicine and the innate wisdom of the mind-body connection. We hope to teach others to practice mindful awareness so that they can be more available to our their loved ones and most importantly, to themselves.
