Mindful awareness can be defined as paying attention to present moment experiences with openness, curiosity, and a willingness to be with what is. It is an excellent antidote to the stresses of modern times.
UCLA’s Mindful Awareness Research Center (MARC) was created to foster mindful awareness across the lifespan through education and research to promote well-being and a more compassionate society. If you are new to mindfulness, learn more about it in these short Getting Started videos.
For an introduction to mindfulness meditation that you can practice on your own, download the UCLA Mindful App on iTunes or Google Play, stream, or download the guided meditations from UCLA Health.
Learn more about practicing mindfulness on the MARC website, which includes an extensive video gallery and other free resources.
