Yes and no. It is not psychotherapy per se, but it is highly therapeutic in that it changes your mental state for the better. Mindfulness meditation shows up in meditative techniques that are part of every great religion. Yet it requires no belief or dogma. It is a way of training your mind. It is very simple to do, but very difficult to master. I teach mindfulness in two ways. When anxiety, stress and/or restlessness show up in therapy, I will often teach the technique as a way of slowing things down and facilitating a better way of managing problems. Since the world has become such an abundant source of stress, I find myself doing this teaching more and more. Recently, I have begun teaching mindfulness meditation in groups to businesses looking for ways of increasing productivity, reducing conflict and improving the general health of their employees. It is a worthwhile technique since, as research has shown, it lowers blood pressure, increases the ability to handle difficult situations and improves immune system functioning, among other benefits.
