Scientific research on Mindfulness has proven to be an effective intervention in developing coping strategies in managing stress, strengthening focus and concentration, and promoting self-esteem, and well-being. Evidence from neuroscience and brain imaging suggests that mindfulness training changes the structure and function of the physical brain to improve mental and emotional functioning.
