Forum: Science of Contemplative Practice (Anne Shelly Baumgartner)

An interactive presentation exploring the neural science behind Mindfulness, a current practice for relieving pain, anxiety, depression, and addiction, as well as increasing focused attention for students of all ages. Learn how to observe the inner world of thoughts, feelings, and emotions as scientists observe the natural world.
