What is Mindfulness?
Mindfulness is about having moment-to-moment awareness of your own experience, with a feeling of acceptance.
You’re acting mindfully when you listen to a song you love, and notice every tiny detail in the sound. The opposite of mindfulness would be those times when your body works on “autopilot”, or when your mind is constantly occupied by worries about the past or to do lists for the future.
By focusing on the here and now, many people who practice mindfulness find that they are less likely to get caught up in worries, are less preoccupied with concerns about success and are better able to reflect upon relationships with others.
