6 Easy Ways to Practice Mindfulness | The Benefits of Mindfulness

“Mindfulness is the simple process of noticing new things about the familiar. When we notice actively, we become sensitive to perspective and change.” - Ellen Langer

Mindfulness isn’t about clearing your mind and having ZERO thoughts. It’s about becoming the OBSERVER - being deeply present and noticing what is happening in the moment - rather than being the THINKER - constantly spinning your wheels or spending time in the past or future.

In clinical and peer-reviewed studies, Mindfulness has been shown to:

• Increase well-being

• Reduce stress

• Reduce emotional exhaustion

• Reduces emotional reactivity

• Increase happiness

• Increase sense of calm & security

• Improve cognitive function

• Increase job satisfaction

• Increase work engagement

• Ease depression

• And more!
