Meditation & Mindfulness Resources
Meditation is a mental practice that involves focusing one’s mind and awareness to achieve a calm, clear state, promoting emotional well-being and enhancing overall health.
Mindfulness is the practice of focusing on the present moment with awareness and acceptance, which can enhance mental well-being and reduce stress.
Numerous studies indicate that mindfulness and meditation practices can have a positive impact on mental and physical well-being, with some research showing significant benefits for anxiety, depression, and pain management. While there are some studies that report negative experiences associated with meditation, the overall evidence suggests that mindfulness-based interventions are more effective than non-evidence-based treatments for reducing anxiety and depression symptoms.
