Mindfulness is a mental state and practice that involves being fully present and aware of the present moment without judgment. It entails focusing one’s attention on thoughts, feelings, bodily sensations, or the surrounding environment with an attitude of acceptance and non-reactivity. By cultivating mindfulness through meditation and daily mindfulness exercises, individuals can develop greater self-awareness, emotional regulation, and stress reduction. Mindfulness-based practices have been widely utilized in mindfulness-based therapies, such as Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), to treat various mental health conditions and promote overall well-being. This practice encourages a deeper connection to the present moment and a more compassionate understanding of oneself and others.
