Mindfulness is a form of awareness, of the present moment. Mindfulness is a way of life, a new way to be, free of stress and anxiety.

Its viability has been expounded by everyone from the Buddha to modern medical practitioners.

Stay focused. With regular practice, they will also improve your mental health, overall brain function and physical well-being apart from other benefits. There is no downside to being more mindful, and this is just the book to help you get started.
Mindfulness Is Not Just Relaxation
It is important to remember that mindfulness is not the same as relaxation, even though they are used interchangeably in many contexts. The intention of mindfulness is to cultivate, as said, an awareness of the moment. Even though relaxation might be a well-observed symptom of mindfulness, it is far from the goal. It is important for you to know what you are striving for before you can give it your all.
A testimonial to this is that successful companies like Facebook and Google are working towards integrating mindfulness into their work cultures. Their office spaces encourage a calm vibe, with a balanced emphasis on play and relaxation. Obviously, this does not imply an absence or laxity of structure, but an understanding that a few moments of reflection and awareness can boost your creativity. Mindfulness techniques are being widely employed in organizations ranging from the American army to the British parliament, as well as large corporations. They are also quite a hit with wellness centers, businesses of all sizes, various kinds of workshops, as well as laboratories.
According to recent research in Health Psychology, mindfulness is associated with not only a reduction in feelings of stress but also a drop in levels of cortisol, the hormone associated with stress. Techniques and practices of mindfulness are useful in a range of scenarios, from psychological illnesses, anger management, wellbeing at a workplace, and performance improvement in schools, athletic training, and other kinds of competitive tasks.
