The film is called Free the Mind and is in limited release all over the US. It focuses on two returning veterans suffering from PTSD and on a little boy named Will who was abandoned at birth, cycled through a variety of foster homes and at the age of five is dealing with a serious case of ADHD. All three of them use the techniques from mindfulness and meditation to change their lives for the better with amazing results.
Being a clinician I thought the film would be educational but I was caught off guard by the power of this film to help us empathize with people who want to be happy. I'm not afraid to admit I had many beliefs confirmed, learned a few things and also shed some surprising tears towards the movie's end.
While most of you wont be able to see it in the theater, it will soon be on-line for rental and hopefully appear on TV as well.
Free your mind by seeing it.
