The goal of mindfulness is to remain present in the moment. There are several benefits associated with mindfulness and wellness that improve mental health outcomes, including reducing stress, improving clarity, gaining insights, demonstrating compassion for others, and managing urges or cravings.

When used in conjunction with psychotherapy and/or medication (as needed), wellness practices can help teens and young adults cope with their mental health issues over time.
