What is mindfulness?

Mindfulness is the awareness that arises from paying attention on purpose, in the present moment, and non-judgmentally.

The Corewell Health Center for Mindfulness offers an evidence-based approach to address the causes of stress rather than treating the symptoms.

Mindfulness training has been shown to positively impact overall well-being, mental health, and physical health. Mindfulness training also supports a non-pharmacological approach to pain management.

The Center for Mindfulness represents:

  • Clarity
