Today’s complex, fluid, and unpredictable operational environment both demands more from the military in terms of mission requirements and exposes troops to more stressors and potential trauma than ever
before. Mindfulness-based Mind Fitness Training (MMFT)® is  a 20- hour course designed to improve performance and enhance resilience for individuals working in an extreme stress environment. The result is a “mental armour” which both increases warriors’  operational effectiveness and enhances their capacity to bounce back from stressful experience.  Elizabeth A. Stanley, Ph.D. and John M. Schaldach

“We’ve got a responsibility when we get sworn in as a member of Congress to try to help our constituents,  and to help our country, and to know and to have personal experience of programs that are actually going to transform our country at a very fundamental level..... these programs have a profound effect on people who are working in very high  levels of stress burnout in their jobs – if they’re nurses, or firefighters, or police officers - and this is able to reduce their stress, and improve their performance."
