Once, at a dinner party, a guest turned to me and asked, “What\u2019s something everyone is aware of but doesn’t fully understand?” After a brief pause, someone chimed in with, \u201cMindfulness! People talk about it, but do they really get all its benefits?” We all laughed, but it did get me thinking. Despite mindfulness having become a cultural buzzword, there’s a lot more beneath its serene surface. Numerous experts from various fields have uncovered the profound benefits mindfulness practices can bring to our lives, some of which are surprisingly impactful.<\/p>\n
