Mindfulness

Takeaways
Description
It's hard to feel happy and at peace when you're dealing with so much stress, depression, and exhaustion every day. It takes a serious commitment to try to change this—it's not something that happens overnight. But MBCT is a simple yet powerful practice that can help you break the cycle of anxiety, stress, unhappiness, and exhaustion. You just need to learn a little bit about the type of mindfulness meditation called “mindfulness,” which you can do in just a few minutes a day. MBCT has been proven by research studies conducted at top universities to be as effective or more effective than drugs for depression. In other words, it works—and it works for people who aren't depressed but are in pain because they're trying to keep up with all of the demands of society every day.
