Rhythmic cues can help retrain the brain after a stroke

or other neurological impairment, as with Parkinson's patients.

Mindfulness is about being fully awake in our lives. It is about

perceiving the exquisite vividness of each moment. We also gain immediate access to

our own powerful inner resources for insight,

transformation, and healing.
