MINDFULNESS MEDITATION is an evidenced–based, VA-supported mind-body technique that helps you face the challenges and stressors of everyday life.
Research has shown a connection between your mind and your body that can be used to improve health. When your mind is relaxed and focused on healing, your body can relax and focus on healing too. Meditation can be safely used in conjunction with other medical treatments such as prescribed medication or exercise.
Mindfulness Meditation teaches acceptance and awareness of what’s going on around you as well as what’s going on inside of you. It has been effective in treating health conditions such as insomnia, anxiety, high blood pressure, chronic pain and PTSD.
Mindfulness Meditation can be practiced sitting down, lying down, stretching, eating, even while walking the dog!
