Dr. Teri Pipe’s Robert Wood Johnson (RWJF) final project for her Executive Fellowship (a video entitled “In the Moment, Stories of Mindfulness in Nursing”) was accepted to the National Academy of Medicine’s new art collection focused on clinician well-being and resilience. This video will be part of the permanent collection in the National Academy online gallery.
"First of all, what’s the difference between mindfulness and meditation? They’re closely related but slightly different. Meditation can be viewed as a way to clear the mind, let go, and achieve peace and stillness within. Mindfulness is being presently and actively aware of feelings, thoughts, behavior, etc., in a non-judgmental way. The blend of the two techniques is often referred to as “mindfulness meditation.” "
