Helps Control Anxiety & Depression — Mindfulness-based approaches often work as well as (or better than) standard treatments for reducing symptoms.
Improves Emotional Health — Enhances mood, self-awareness, and resilience to negative emotions.
Boosts Focus & Attention — Lengthens attention span and improves concentration.
Supports Physical Health — May lower blood pressure, reduce chronic pain, improve sleep, and even strengthen immune function.
