Ayman realized that she wanted to teach the simple tricks that helped her in her relationships, work, and even health! So she quit her successful Wall Street career to become a neuroimmunology researcher at NYU and became a therapist. Ayman has several neuroscience papers on mindfulness interventions and book chapters on epigenetic changes of mindfulness. She teaches mindfulness-based micro-habit programs for frontline caregivers at 26 hospitals. These 30-second practical habits are seen to reduce stress and burnout as they could be done anywhere, anytime.
