Jon Kabat-Zin, the founder of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) defines mindfulness as " paying attention in a particular way: on purpose, in the present moment, and non-judgmentally.”
Through mindfulness training we learn to become more aware in the moment and accept things as they are.
This allows us to respond to life in a calm and creative manner, rather than reacting in an automatic or habitual way.
Mindfulness can make it possible to have a rich and fulfilling life, even when experiencing difficult circumstances.
