Why mindfulness?

In Turin, mindfulness is our way of life because as born epicureans, we feel the need to nourish both our bodies and souls.

Our mission is to cuddle our bodies involving and freeing our minds. This practice refreshes our general system, and allows us to make the most of our earthly experiences.
During our practice, we surrender our worries, tensions, and benefit fully from our daily experiences: our appreciation of food and wine is enhanced, our palate's sensitivity is amplified, our internal organs enjoy a relaxing massage and our muscles can be released after being nicely stretched.

With the regular practice, the quality of our life improves dramatically and you can practice with us online too, wherever you are!
