“Mindfulness is the energy that helps us recognize the conditions of happiness that are already present in our lives. You don’t have to wait ten years to experience this happiness. It is present in every moment of your daily life.”
“Mindfulness is when you are truly there, mind and body together. You breathe in and out mindfully, you bring your mind back to your body, and you are there.”
These statements encapsulates what mindfulness truly means to some people. Being present in the here and now is the overarching goal of mindfulness. Being mindful can help you gain new perspectives about yourself, analyze situations without harsh judgement, reduce stress, improve concentration, and possibly even improve sleep.

Mindfulness is a great tool to have to decompress from a stressful day or event or just to improve overall quality of life. Keep practicing and soon you will be able to implement the same feelings and attitudes during your practice into your everyday life.
