Mindfulness is a particular way of paying attention. It is the mental faculty of purposefully bringing attention to one’s present moment experience. Practicing mindfulness can lead to: improved ability to focus, increased patience and adaptability, greater empathy and compassion, and improved feelings of well-being. In this session we’ll review mindfulness basics and try a couple of short practices that you’ll be able to do on your own.
