Mindfulness-Based Therapy

If only I could have a moment’s peace.

You’re stressed out, exhausted, and frustrated.

You don’t remember the last time you felt “normal” or genuinely relaxed and happy.

You used to have a lot going on – lofty goals – now, you’d be thrilled to have just one average, uneventful day.

Sometimes, you almost feel like giving up. But you don’t have to do that.

There’s hope – in a change of perspective.

Mindfulness therapy can teach you how to focus attention. It offers you the ability to pay attention to things like breath, steps when walking, trees and birds, or the content of your mind.

As your capacity for awareness grows, so does your ability to choose where you focus. By focusing on the present moment, you can let go of regrets about the past and worries about the future.

Through mindfulness therapy, you can gain greater awareness of your mind. You can disconnect from reactivity induced by intense emotions and resulting in regrettable behaviors.

You can learn to calm yourself by focusing on your body and immediate surroundings.

Looking at the world – and yourself – differently

Criticisms of self and others often lead to difficulty in relationships and challenges with self-acceptance.

A key component of mindfulness is realizing your inner critic and cultivating your ability to refrain from judgment.

Maintaining an impartial stance can improve positive experiences, increase your ability to be compassionate, and let go of blaming others for your suffering.

Little changes lead to BIG ones.

Even five minutes of daily practice can lead to more peaceful feelings, better decision-making, and more effective behaviors.

Mindfulness-Based Therapy has proven effective in treating anxiety, depression, dissociation, PTSD, and addictions. It’s also lessened symptoms of ADD/ADHD, impulsivity (acting before thinking), and mood instability.

Your improved awareness and self-control will enhance your relationships.

You’d also be surprised at how much it can help with physical pain and discomfort and stress reduction.
