At the same time that the legal profession is experiencing great upheaval, mindfulness is being embraced as an important vehicle for assisting both the individual and the larger collective in responding to the many challenges posed by a rapidly changing world. A secular practice with roots reaching back thousands of years, mindfulness is commonly regarded as a tool for reducing stress, achieving greater focus and concentration, and working with anxiety, depression, substance abuse, pain, and a host of other physical and emotionalchallenges. Whereas five years ago there was little mention of mindfulness in the law, today it is a widely recognized term. Furthermore, a growing number of law schools are offering mindfulness programs, legal conferences are organizing mindfulness presentations and workshops, and legal organizations are introducing mindfulness to their members.
