Center for Mindfulness, Compassion and Resilience
The Center for Mindfulness, Compassion and Resilience brings together Arizona State University faculty, students and research partners to examine the impacts of mindfulness across a wide range of areas, including studies of social relationships and social justice, neuroscience and aging, wellbeing and immune function.
Among the ongoing research studies at ASU are efforts in the School of Social Work examining the impacts of mindfulness training and daily practice on communication and social connectedness. ASU scientists and partners are also investigating the mind-body connection and cognitive psychology, as well as how the human brain responds to mindfulness and its potential to enhance emotion regulation and positively impact neural patterns.
