In the quiet corners of daily routines and the bustling chaos of office spaces, an often-unseen crisis lingers—affecting millions but seldom making headlines.

This technique, which has its roots in antiquated contemplative traditions like Buddhism, has been widely investigated and modified in modern contexts like psychology and neuroscience.
But the main question is, does mindfulness work in solving real-life problems?
