ABOUT
What is Mindful.org?
Mindful.org is the leading website dedicated to giving voice, inspiration, guidance, and connection to all those who want to enjoy the proven benefits of mindfulness practices and to create a more mindful and caring society.
Mindful.org’s readers learn from leaders in the field about effective techniques for mindfulness as it applies to their health, happiness, family, career, society, and more — and they learn the science that proves these techniques work.
Mindful.org reveals all the ways that mindfulness can improve others’ lives, too, across society — from workplaces to classrooms and doctors’ offices, to the environment and public policy. Readers tell their own stories as well, of discovering the benefits of mindful living, and sharing these benefits with others.
Grounded in genuine practice and embracing all perspectives, Mindful.org celebrates the goodness that we all have, and gives practical guidance for realizing that goodness in every aspect of our lives.
Mindful.org is part of Mindful, a media initiative of the Foundation for a Mindful Society. In collaboration with the Hemera Foundation, Mindful supports the practice and development of mindfulness, awareness, and compassion in all aspects of modern life.
