Mindfulness is a pretty straightforward word, but many people think it’s difficult to follow because there is a false impression where it’s thought in order to practice mindfulness you have to have commitment to meditation daily.  But that’s not true.  With a little bit of practice and understanding we can all practice mindfulness, a method that is increasingly being emphasized across the world.

Through mindfulness you become present and conscious of your surroundings and there is awareness of the environment you’re standing in.  It’s a tool that gives you the ability to understand your physical/ emotional state and regain control over feelings that can often become destructive.

People who practice mindfulness effectively have developed a greater appreciation for their day to day life and over time have increased their ability to problem solve and improve communication and relationships.

One of the most important specifics to keep in mind is to make sure the therapist you’re working with is a good fit for you.  They should understand your needs and wants and be free of bias so don’t be afraid to ask questions.  Call today to receive a free 30-minute phone consultation and determine if therapy is the route for you.
