Mindfulness is about observing the world around you without criticism or judgment. Being mindful can help you reduce stress, improve your health and wellbeing, and can be a


powerful tool for increased performance in the workplace. Learn how stress impacts your body and your decision


making, and develop important skills to improve your health and wellbeing through a regular mindfulness practice. Gentle movement like yoga, mindful communication


exercises, and group discussion will improve your wellbeing and reduce your stress.
