How to practice mindfulness

Mindfulness is the basic human ability to be fully present, aware of where we are and what we're doing, and not overly reactive or overwhelmed by what's going on around us.

Mindfulness is the quality that every human being already posseses, it is not something you can conjure up, you have to learn how to acces it.

Mindfulness is a natural quality we all have in us. We can use it at any moment throughout our day if we take the time for it. Mindfulness might seem simple but it't not necessarily all that easy.

1. Its free: Practicing mindfulness is free, you don't need anything for it.
2. There is no way to quiet your mind: It is not the goal to quiet your mind, all your're tying to do is paying attention to the present moment without judgement.
3. your mind will wander: As you practice paying attention to what's going on in your body and mind at the present moment, you'll notice that many thoughts will arise. 
4. Your judgy brain will try to take over: Judgement is the second part of the puzzle.
5. It's all about returning your attention back to the breath: Our minds are wired to get carried away in thoughts.
