Mindfulness Meditation Facilitator

Trained by Dr. Deborah Norris, PhD of the Mindfulness Center, David teaches Mindfulness Meditation as a complimentary healing practice for all ages. Mindfulness is the practice of bringing one's attention to the internal and external experiences occurring in the present moment. Evidence supports the use of mindfulness programs to alleviate symptoms of a variety of mental and physical disorders. Mindfulness meditation has been connected to favorable structural changes in the brain, including prevention or delay in the onset of dementias. Mindfulness meditation is unique in that it is not directed toward getting us to be different from how we already are. Instead, it helps us become aware of what is already true, moment by moment; to be present with whatever is happening, no matter what it is. Mindful meditation is a great way to increase focus, decrease stress, and stimulate your creativity.
