All About Mindfulness
-
What Is Mindfulness?
Mindfulness is the powerful human ability to be fully present and aware of our surroundings and activities. It empowers us to remain grounded, not allowing ourselves to be overly reactive or overwhelmed by what unfolds around us. This quality resides within each of us; it simply requires a journey of discovery to access it.

Benefits Of Practicing Mindfulness
Mindfulness meditation encourages us to pause judgment and explore our thoughts with curiosity. It fosters warmth and kindness toward ourselves and others, effectively managing stress and anxiety, and reducing stress-related inflammation for better health.

Mindfulness Classes At Circe Healthcare
Mindfulness classes are done via Zoom and incorporate breathing exercises, guided imagery, and lessons to enhance awareness of thoughts, feelings, and bodily sensations. They promote mindfulness in daily activities like walking and eating, encouraging focus and ease. Practicing mindfulness doesn't require spiritual beliefs, despite its meditation and Buddhism roots.
Heal and Thrive with Acupuncture Therapy
Acupuncture is a 3,000-year-old integrative medical practice that originated in China. It is an evidence-based medicine that has been proven by thousands of studies to benefit many conditions affecting every system of the body.
Minimally Invasive
- Acupuncture stimulates nerve-rich areas of the skin to influence body functions.
- The small needles stimulate the immune system, improve circulation, aid wound healing, and alleviate pain.
- These pathways are called Meridians and carry the invisible life-giving force called āqiā (pronounced ācheeā). When the qi flows well, a person experiences good mental and physical health. Ā
30 to 60 Minute Sessions
- An acupuncture session lasts approximately 30 to 60 minutes.
- Medicare covers acupuncture treatments to manage lower back pain.
- Many patients find the treatments to be very relaxing due to the release of dopamine, common in acupuncture. Others may find they are energized and focused. There is no universal response. Ā
Balance & Harmony
- Each patient is unique in their condition, treatment and response.
- Some patients may experience immediate improvement, while others may require multiple treatments before noticing a positive change.
- The most common response to acupuncture is a distinct, balanced, and harmonious feeling, along with a sense of natural well-being. Ā
