Building Function
Listen in as Brad and the team of Exercise Physiologists at Specialised Health and Reva Wellness breakdown the barriers to improving the function of those with chronic health conditions such as cancer, chronic fatigue and mental health. Our aim is not only to help patients with these conditions come out the other side stronger than ever but to also empower those who work in the rehabilitation and insurance industry to understand what else they can do to support their clients along the road to recovery.

On today’s podcast the team delves into the topic of mindfulness and meditation. Yolanda, Tessa and Dan discuss what mindfulness entails, and how they came to be aware of and practice mindfulness themselves.
We discuss some of the literature and research supporting the use of mindfulness in various populations, in addition to some of the self-reported benefits and physiological adaptations that occur as a result of long-term mindfulness practice. We finish with some practical takeaways for listeners who are looking to dip their toes into the world of mindfulness. We hope you enjoy!
