What is mindfulness?

Mindfulness is interrupting our busy lives once every day to focus our attention on the people around us.

Why practice mindfulness?

Our goal is to increase our capacity for compassion, become more fully aware of our thoughts and emotions, and help us feel connected to our neighbors. Mindfulness cultivates empathy. We invite you to awaken active love for a new neighbor every day this month.
