What is MINDFULNESS?
Mindfulness is about nurturing a more gentle attitude toward yourself and to the thoughts, feelings and bodily sensations that occur moment by moment.
Mindfulness can help you develop the willingness to let everything be as it is and to be mindfully aware of what‘s coming and going. This can lead to a clearer understanding of your life experience but also to a sense of stability in the face of it all.
The sights, sounds, smells and sensations of life; meet them all with a gentle touch.

According to Dr. Jon Kabat-Zinn, founder of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR):
Mindfulness means paying attention in a particular way, on purpose, in the present moment, and nonjudgmentally.
