Mindfulness is the capacity to be alert and open to life experience as it occurs in a non-reactive, resilient, and compassionate way. – Susan Kaiser Greenland

• why be mindful?
• In the haze of today’s rapidly changing and unpredictable world, we need to give greater priority to cultivating skills that will reduce stress, develop attention and increase our capacity to effectively manage the complexities of life. Mindfulness does just that.
• When we are mindful, we recognize our emotions and those of others in the present moment. With mindfulness we skillfully communicate with greater reflection, emotional balance and clarity.
