Mindfulness Resources
Here are some mindfulness resources and meditation practices to help you pave a path to a mentally healthy and happy life.
As psychologists and mindfulness practitioners, we have created special programs and written articles to make mindfulness directly and practically applicable to your mental health.
Learning to live in the present, appreciating life for what it brings us, is a core pillar of good mental health. However, our mind is instead conditioned to worry about the future or reminisce about the past. In a sense, a great deal of emotional difficulty is caused by the mind focusing excessively on some aspects of life, thus, missing out on acquiring a holistic perspective.
For example, when angry, our focus is on how we are wronged, when worried, it is on how the future may turn out. these mindfulness resources will help you learn to relax mentally and experience the present fully, thereby training the mind to take one moment at a time. Such training and ongoing practice will heal your mind and body internally and helps you find true inner peace.

A young woman from another country moved with her family to live for one year in a town near the monastery. When, in the course of the year she discovered the monastery, she would periodically visit to have discussions with the Abbess. The Abbess introduced her to meditation, which became very meaningful for the young woman.
When the family’s year-long stay was drawing to an end, the young woman asked the Abbess, “In my country there is no Buddhism and no one has even heard about meditation. How can I continue to learn and deepen the practice you have started me on?”
The Abbess said, “When you return home ask far and wide for who, among the wise people, is recognized as having the greatest ability to listen. Ask that person to instruct you in the art of listening. What you learn about listening from such a person will teach you how to further your meditation practice.
