What is Mindfulness? A Mompreneur’s Guide. Hi. Bridgett here from The Radiant Mompreneur. In this video I’d like to share with you kind of an intro to mindfulness. So, I’ll be answering the question “What is mindfulness?”
And please watch the follow up videos for more information such as: What are the benefits of mindfulness? Why should I use it? How can I incorporate it in my daily life? And what are some mindfulness techniques and meditations?
So for this video: What is mindfulness? Most simply, mindfulness is living in the present moment; experiencing the here now without any judgments about it.
And that sounds pretty simple but how often are we really living in the moment? So often our minds are just going and going and our thoughts may seem a little out of control at times, and it’s nice to quiet the mind.
A lot of times we are thinking about something that happened in the past. Maybe it was half an hour ago, or two weeks ago, or ten years ago, and our mind goes there and replays things. Or we are often living in the future. We are anticipating. We may have some anxiety about the future, some worry.
Mindfulness just draws us back to the here and now. And there is a relaxation that comes from that and a calm that can come from being in the present moment. That is why, that’s one of many reasons why we cultivate a mindfulness practice in our lives.
And there’s an informal and a formal practice of that and I’ll be sharing those in future videos. Mindfulness is how I live my life now and it has really helped me to be balanced and successful and joyful.
