"Mindfulness "refers to the art of being with what is. It opens us to a refined sense of being, noticing what happens when you do not try to change the present moment. Mindfulness is a powerful key to being a vibrant human being, because it teaches you to look closely at life and breathe with the mysterious pulse that is flowing through you in this moment. 

 

Science has today proven the numerous positive effects of mindfulness training, from stress reduction to strengthening brain areas of positive mental states and emotions, as well as the immune system. Mindfulness has become part of many therapeutic systems. It is a peace process of letting go of being at war with ourselves and life.

In the mindfulness training, we learn to better recognize our behavioral patterns, to change perspectives and self-regulate our emotions and thoughts. As we encounter our experiences as a part of human life instead of as faulty, we see our negative thoughts and feelings with completely new eyes. We learn to approach ourselves gently and lovingly, as we understand these to be merely defense mechanisms that our evolutionary system developed to meet life at the best of our capacities. The practice thus becomes a learning process about ourselves and life. We come to understand and redefine what it means to be human.
