WHAT IS MINDFULNESS?

“On purpose”

Involves the conscious and deliberate

direction of our attention

WHAT IS MINDFULNESS?

“In the present moment”

Involves living in the “here and now”

as opposed to replaying the past and

projecting the future

in my life, most of which

never happened.”

- Mark Twain
