Mindfulness Center

Every year, millions of people see a health care professional for symptoms that diagnostic tests can't explain. In many of these patients, the cause of the illness is stress, particularly stress that isn't fully recognized. Managing stress is all about taking charge of your thoughts, emotions, and the way you deal with problems.

Integrative Medicine is an approach to medical care focusing on the whole person and recognizing the interactions of mind, body and spirit to optimize health and healing.

“Mindfulness practice means that we commit fully in each moment to be present; inviting ourselves to interface with this moment in full awareness, with the intention to embody as best we can an orientation of calmness, mindfulness, and equanimity right here and right now.” - Jon Kabat-Zinn

Our Mindfulness Center

To make the Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction Program and other mindfulness programs accessible to patients, physicians and residents of the greater Palm Beaches, Jupiter Medical Center opened a new center for mindfulness to address yet another facet of the community’s health and wellness. The “soul” purpose of our Calcagnini Center for Mindfulness is to help people balance their emotional, physical and spritual health through mindfulness.

“The best way to capture moments is to pay attention. This is how we cultivate mindfulness. Mindfulness means being awake. It means knowing what you are doing.” - Jon Kabat-Zinn
