While working as a bedside nurse, I began to experience symptoms of caregiver burnout. I was losing an appreciation for life, and felt ready to hang up my stethoscope forever.  Thankfully, I lived down the street from a yoga studio, and started integrating yoga into my weekly routine, that eventually turned into a daily routine, and then an profound appreciation for meditation and introspection. I didn’t quite realize it at the time, but it was this mindfulness practice that helped me heal from burnout.  To deepen my knowledge on this new practice I was falling in love with, I went through a 200 hour Yoga Teacher Training Course; it was during this intensive, where the Mindfulness inking was created! I was inspired to create a visual representation of a meditating brain, as a reminder that mindfulness-based practices take patience, consistency, and focus. 

From far away, this floating brain looks simple, but a closer look reveals a highly complex, detailed, and focused effort.
