Mind-Body-Spirit techniques such as mindfulness and meditation can improve mental wellness. Many studies have shown that these techniques can have physical and mental health benefits, including less stress and anxiety, reduced depressive symptoms, better sleep, reduced pain, improved brain function, better-coping skills, and increased resilience. Dr. Scalora will discuss Mind-Body-Spirit techniques that enhance the connection between your mind, emotions, body, and spirit to boost resilience to deal with daily stress more effectively to increase inner peace, well-being, and happiness.
