Mindfulness

"Mindfulness can be thought of as a moment-to-moment, non-judgmental awareness, cultivated by paying attention in a specific way; that is, in the present moment and as non-reactively, non-judgmentally and openheartedly as possible. When it is cultivated intentionally, it is sometimes referred to as deliberate mindfulness. When it spontaneously arises, it is sometimes referred to as effortless mindfulness. Ultimately, however arrived at, mindfulness is mindfulness." - Jon Kabat-Zinn.
