Some found that their blood pressuure reduced or normalized; a few have been taken off of blood pressure medication.
Mostly, clients report that they sleep better, have reduced anxiety, have more energy and improved focus, and are less likely to have interpersonal relationship struggles when practicing mindfulness.

The Muddy Path Corporate Program
My secular program, The Muddy Path, is layered with a podcast, courses and more. We each have our own path but we are on the same journey. My program is unique in that I provide an integrated approach that uses strategies and insight from my experience in the therapy room as a licensed therapist and my distinctive experience in working with Plum Village, the late Thich Nhat Hanh's Buddhist community and initiation from His Holiness the Dalai Lama.
