MINDFULNESS

Mindfulness is a state of conscious awareness characterized by intentionally focusing one's attention on the present moment without judgment.

The self care skill of mindfulness has been found to have numerous benefits for mental well-being, stress reduction, emotional regulation, and overall quality of life.

"Mindfulness is simply being aware of what is happening right now without wishing it were different; enjoying the pleasant without holding on when it changes (which it will); being with the unpleasant without fearing it will always be this way (which it won't)."
