Stress Reduction, Self-Compassion,<br />

and a Sense <strong>of</strong> Well-Being<br />

Deborah Campbell, DSW, LCSW, MSW, MS<br />

Mindfulness is moment-<strong>to</strong>-moment awareness.<br />

It is knowing what you are experiencing<br />

while you are experiencing it. Exciting new<br />

evidence suggests that mindfulness helps <strong>to</strong><br />

lower anxiety, alter your response <strong>to</strong> chronic<br />

pain, and alleviate relapse in<strong>to</strong> addiction and<br />

decrease susceptibility <strong>to</strong> depression.<br />

Learn how mindfulness is an antidote <strong>to</strong><br />

stress in our daily lives, navigating “mind<br />

traps”, and <strong>the</strong> eight attitudes <strong>of</strong> mindfulness<br />

(including self-compassion, self-reliance, letting<br />

be, having a sense <strong>of</strong> equanimity or balance,<br />

acknowledging what is here now).<br />
