Mindfulness is designed to help you handle difficult thoughts, feelings and moods by learning to respond rather than react to life's difficulties. You will learn the core skill of mindfulness, a way of of being present in your body and mind, and aware of the world around you. This enables you to cultivate and increase awareness and offers potential for positive changes in your life.
