Mindfulness is non-judgemental, undistracted engagement with the present moment.

Mindfulness practice reduces anxiety and helps prevent recurrences of depression. This is because mindfulness allows us to concentrate on specific thoughts and cast aside unwanted intrusive thoughts.

This video is part of a series designed to help health practitioners learn evidence-based skills which enhance mental wellbeing and resilience. If you are a health practitioner, why not try these techniques for yourself? Once you’ve practiced these skills and experienced the benefit, we hope you will be willing and able to teach them to others.

If you are not a health practitioner, please watch these videos anyway! We encourage everyone to look after their mental health and emotional wellbeing in ways that we know work.
