Wellness - Mindfulness

This class introduces the concept of mindfulness. The principles underlying mindfulness is that we can only be in the here and now in each moment. The senses communicate to us what we are experiencing at the present moment.   When we bring our consciousness to the present reality, there is no stress in the  moment. When we allow our thoughts to drift to either the past or the future and attach some kind of threat to those thoughts, we create stress and our body reacts with the stress response.
