‘The practice of mindfulness is simply being aware of what is happening right now”.
Mindfulness, in theory, is extremely straightforward. Simply put, it’s the practice of being fully present, fully aware, and fully able to engage with one’s current situation or environment.
Why then, does it seem so elusive?
So many of us are accustomed to over-stimulation from the outside world - things directing our attention away from what is happening now. The more time we spend in our heads thinking about things that aren’t happening right in front of us - things that have already happened or have yet to happen - the less time we spend being mindful.
Harvard students investigated the effects of the ‘alpha rhythm’, or rhythmic brain movements which are associated with DISTRACTION. This brain rhythm is thought to decrease activity in the mind which is associated with being distracted and overstimulated. Participants were given an 8-week mindful meditation program that saw their attention-direction improve significantly, leading the researchers to conclude the positive benefits of the mindfulness were responsible.
