About the Mindful Living Center
|
The Mindful Living Center
was developed to allow more people access to
mindfulness-based programs and workshops. Our programs
are rooted in Eastern Psychology and Philosopy which has
taken a mind body approach to health and healing for
centuries. Western psychology and transformational
learning theories complement these programs and
instruction.
