What is Mindfulness?
Mindfulness is an ability that you already have. It is built into how your brain works. It helps you focus. It gives you the potential to notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being overwhelmed by them. It helps you control your mind and behaviour. It can help you be authentic and find more equanimity and joy in your life.
