“Mindfulness is the energy that allows us to recognize our habit energy and prevent it from dominating us.”

Thich Nhat Hanh. The heart of the Buddha’s teaching: Transforming suffering into peace, joy, and liberation, 1999, p. 25.

The concept of „mindfulness“ has been around for 2600 years. Back then, the Buddha taught it to anyone wishing to achieve freedom from suffering. It has since been passed from teacher to student, from the East to the West, to this moment.

Mindfulness meditation is a practice that can be learned by anyone. Done regularly, it can help calm the ‘monkey mind’, open ways of coping with life’s obstacles, and generate compassion for self and others. A growing body of academic research points to potential benefits for metal and physical health.
