Mindfulness: 

Mindfulness is the practice of increasing your awareness of the present moment. Some people refer to it as "living in the now," or "being present." It is a practice, which means that you don't ever fully master it, rather you improve and grow as a person as you make efforts to integrate it in your life. Mindfulness is practiced through meditation, prayer, relaxation exercises, guided imagery, cognitive therapy, and many more avenues.

Meditative practices also have a great impact on the brain. Yoga can elevate GABA, decrease pain, and improve mood. Dopamine increases with regular meditation practices. Those that practice daily for at least 30 minutes show a significant increase in neural activity. Mindfulness helps people cope with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, eating disorders and stress management. Mindfulness is a proven scientific way to cope that I use in my daily life.
