Incorporating mindfulness into a day-to-day routine, even in small ways, can positively impact many aspects of life. Marie's life has changed for the better since practicing mindfulness and wants to share the practice with others so they can experience the joy that she has. In her talk, she uncovers some misconceptions about Mindfulness and helps the audience to understand Mindfulness correctly and practice it daily.
