Speaker: Adj A/Prof Angie Chew, Mindfulness Principal & CEO, Brahm Centre

Taking medication for anxiety and depression is just addressing the symptoms. There are root causes to anxiety and depression. The emotions are fear and anger. The root cause are the issues that our mind just can’t shake off. The memories and thoughts of the past and worries of the future keep haunting us. This “mindless” rumination bring about harmful stress and physiological changes to our body and brain.

Mindfulness is an evidence based approach to managing and healing our mind and body.
