Over 2600 years ago the Buddha introduced the practice of mindfulness meditation. Since then, human beings throughout Asia and more recently in the west have benefited from the mental clarity, insight, compassion, and wisdom that this practice can provide. Many professionals all over the world have incorporated mindfulness meditation into their daily routine and have found the practice to be extremely helpful in their own lives, in their work and in their ability to relate to their patients, clients and students.
The primary mission of the Mindfulness Institute of Atlanta is to teach professionals in both the practice and application of mindfulness and mindfulness meditation. We provide training, research, and networking opportunities for professionals in mental health, medicine, education, and business.
"My friends, it is thorough the establishment
of the lovely clarity of mindfulness that you can let go of grasping after
the past and future, overcome attachment and grief, abandon clinging and
anxiety, and awaken to an unshakable freedom of heart here and now."
The Buddha
