Mission of Mindful Wellness
The mission of Mindful Wellness is to increase mindfulness, or awareness, by sharing open-source information in an effort to catalyze progressive change at the level of the individual, to ultimately build a better community and world. In other words, the purpose of this website is to offer a structured space to seek and disseminate conceptual truths, while having no dog in the race (the intention is not to be right - truth is the objective), suggest practical lifestyle applications, and share it with the world, all in an effort to create balance.
Through understanding and knowledge of oneself relative to the environment, we can gain a perspective that will enable us to take the necessary steps to begin unleashing our unlimited potential. There are choices that each of us can make right now, to change the way we live, and make ourselves, our planet, and our future much healthier. The human body, and the environment, is truly remarkable in the way that it is able to adapt, compensate, and regenerate, as necessary, in effect to a multitude of demands from modern life; but there is vast difference between surviving and thriving. We are not going to live forever, but while we are alive we can live well. If this website helps people make more informed decisions, or serves as a compass to navigate to the right direction, it will have more than served its purpose.

About The Creators

Since then, it is evolved into an independent open-source wiki with a vision to become a catalytic nexus for global consciousness transformation, based on research and experience, designed for professionals and laymen alike.

Final Words
While the truths reported on this website are scientifically derived and objectively organized, like all truths, they were first experienced personally. A lifelong sequence of various states of awareness first inspired, and then gave direction to, the process of subjective realization that has finally taken form into this website. The intention of providing this information is to get you started on your lifelong process of learning, not to provide all the answers. This content is published with high integrity but we are learning each and every day. We implore you to do your own research. What is true? What do we know? What do you know? What does anybody know? We as society do not know everything, therefore we must remain open-minded. Life is a complicated journey of exploration - it is as much objective is it is subjective. Be prepared for new information, insight, and growth. Expect a constant expansion of consciousness. Have you own human experience. We are all different, you are unique. Please do not accept any, let alone all, of this information as truth on blind faith. Test it! Explore it! See if it makes sense to you. If it doesn't, throw it out. We do not want people to believe this content just based off of belief. Explore the information provided here and see if it resonates with you. We can only share our perspective, we cannot force, nor do we expect, you to accept it.
