'Mindfulness is a simple and very powerful practice of training our attention. It's simple in that it's really just about paying attention to what's happening here and now (i.e. sensations, thoughts, and emotions) in a non-judgemental way. It's powerful because it can interrupt the habit of getting lost in thoughts, mostly about the future or past, which often generates more stress on top of the real pressures of everyday life.'
The Mindfulness Project make mindfulness more accessible while keeping it real and meaningful.
They teach non-religious and evidence-based mindfulness courses to help improve performance, relationships and wellbeing. I am here now is their first, brilliant book.
