title: Mindfulness: another tool in the case managers' toolbox.
abstract: Case managers and their patients/clients may benefit from the practice of mindfulness-based stress reduction. Recently, using MRI technology, science has found that the gray matters in specific areas of the brain increased from premindfulness training to postmindfulness training. The area affected improves regions involved with learning and memory processes, modulation of emotional control, and the process of awareness. This can be another tool in the case management toolbox.
