What is mindfulness?
There are moments in our life when we find ourselves captured in a moment. This moment can be as happy as your first kiss, first salary, first promotion or as sad as your first heart break, losing a loved one or as exciting as your upcoming performance or as anxious as having your first child. Irrespective of the nature of that moment there is a spectrum of emotions that follows with it. Most of the time we are heavily driven by those emotions. We get caught up in this vicious loop of 'what has happened with us..' and 'whats going to happen to us..' to an extent that our whole thought process gets hijacked. This is a gateway to the suffering that we go through. Ultimately, we lose our control over 'what is happening to us'. This awareness of what is happening right now is the crux of mindfulness. In this sense, mindfulness can be seen as an experience where we welcome and accept all sorts of emotions and not struggling or fighting with them. And honestly, this is the state where we discover all the energy and strength to deal with our suffering.
