What is mindfulness and meditation therapy?

Mindfulness and meditation therapy incorporates practices that help you develop present-moment awareness and a non-reactive relationship with your thoughts and feelings. Drawing from contemplative traditions, these approaches teach you to observe your inner experience without judgment. Therapists may guide formal meditation practices or weave mindfulness informally throughout sessions.

How can mindfulness and meditation help?

Many people find mindfulness and meditation helpful for managing anxiety, reducing stress, improving focus, and developing emotional regulation skills. These practices can support you in becoming less caught up in worry, responding more skillfully to difficult emotions, and cultivating greater calm. Regular practice may help build lasting changes in how you relate to your thoughts.

What happens in a mindfulness session?

In mindfulness-based sessions, your therapist may guide you through meditation exercises, breathing practices, or body scans. You might explore how to bring mindful awareness to everyday activities and difficult emotions. Sessions often include discussion of your experiences with practice and strategies for integrating mindfulness into daily life outside of therapy.
