A Complete Guide to Mindfulness

Mindfulness is an ancient practice but in recent years the movement has gained momentum in western countries. While it can often feel like it’s being presented as a cure-all to the stresses of modern life, in reality mindfulness is not a blanket solution in itself, but a means of acknowledging where you are, what you need, and accepting and appreciating the moment you’re in. 

To give a more comprehensive definition, mindfulness means a state achieved by focusing your attention on the present moment and accepting your feelings, thoughts, bodily sensations and circumstances. When practiced regularly, mindfulness has been seen to have a therapeutic effect that strengthens focus, reduces stress, builds productivity, and increases awareness and enjoyment of daily life.
