Mindfulness & Complementary Medicine

MBCT combines the practice and clinical application of mindfulness meditation with the tools of cognitive therapy to break the cycle of recurrent depression.

MBSR is a program that helps you learn to calm you mind and body to help you cope with illness, pain, and stress. It teaches you to focus on things happening in the present moment.

Meditation is the practice of focusing your attention to help you feel calm and give you a clear awareness about your life.

The goal of mindful meditation is to focus your attention on the things that are happening right now in the present moment, noting what you experience without trying to change it.

Mindfulness meditation has the ability to support routine medical practices. It may be able to improve brain function, reduce symptoms of depression, boost the immune system, and so much more.
