The Mindful Awareness

Meditation

Self Study Program

 

 

 

So, what does it mean to be “mindful”?  It means paying attention on purpose; being totally awake in the present moment and aware of our feelings without judging whether they are good or bad or right or wrong.

 

Is this a religious program?  No.  Mindful Awareness is not related to any religion.  The ability to be mindful, calm, and spacious in our attention can actually provide us a deeper

connection to all that sustains us.

 

Is there scientific evidence for this program?  This program is being studied in hospitals with people who are experiencing chronic pain, depression, and the stress of a health crisis.  Our patients who are currently using the Mindful Awareness program are finding it very

beneficial.

 

How is this going to help me?  The stress and tension involved with a health crisis can

intensify the physical, emotional, and psychological pain involved in the experience.  This can create a “pain cycle” so that you don’t know where one stops and the other starts.  Being able

to calm your body and mind and relax in the moment can break that cycle.
