An entertaining, secular, and educational look at the benefits of mindful practice, "The Mindfulness Movie" brings together an unprecedented group of the world's leading neuroscientists, psychiatrists, authors, and others to decode mindfulness.

Then, they walk you through eight practical, foundational mindful lessons -- like managing stress and mindful eating. Finally, meet some heartwarming veterans and teens who are using mindfulness to overcome issues like PTSD, depression, bi-polar disorder, anxiety, and everyday life stresses. Everyone, regardless of belief system or background, has something to gain from watching "The Mindfulness Movie."" Unedited summary from container
