Abstract
Mindfulness meditation is in the news and in our culture, a seemingly new “trend” that celebrities and universities alike have embraced. However, as Professor Donna Oropall points out, this “trend” has been part of Eastern and Western cultures for millennia, and it is only now that science is beginning to catch up. She investigates this phenomenon through her own experiences practicing and teaching, encouraging us to rethink our preconceptions about the way we live.
