What is Mindfulness?

Mindfulness is the practice of being fully present and engaged in the present moment, without judgment. It involves paying attention to your thoughts, feelings, and sensations in a non-reactive way. By practicing mindfulness, you can develop a greater sense of self-awareness, reduce stress, and improve overall well-being.

50 Mindfulness Techniques with Examples
