Mindfulness for wellbeing
In this session, you will learn how mindfulness - which is a way of focusing your attention on the present moment - can help your brain work better, manage stress, think clearer, and manage your mood. You'll find out how it can help you sleep better, feel healthier, and even deal with pain more effectively.
