Skipping the /proc filesystem

Maybe this is something any native *nix speaker knows, but I'm stull 
trudging up the learning curve.

If I do a (cygwin) find for some fragment of a filename, I get a whole 
pile of hits in the /proc/registry area -
none of which is relevant.  I would wish to tell find not to get 
involved with the /proc filesystem at all.

Can that easily be done?
