   The Significance of Mindfulness in One‘s Life

   Mindfulness is a word that is thrown around a lot nowadays, but do we really know what it means to practice mindfulness? It is well-known that the world we live in today is a fast-paced one, and we are constantly surrounded by various stimuli, whether it's through TV and radio, social media and the internet, or our jobs. But this means we also put ourselves under a lot of pressure through deadlines, responsibilities and pressures from society to be ‘successful’. Leading a hectic life can lead us to being less attentive and less mindful towards our surroundings – which can have a detrimental effect on our mental health.Mindfulness is a self-awareness, attention and acceptance-based practice. It’s about being fully in the moment and slowing down. It is the art of controlling your thoughts and perceptions to avoid negative emotions. It's hard to be mindful, especially with distractions like social media, email, and texts that constantly beckon our attention.One of the top challenges for people today is the constant bombardment of information, images and interactions. It's easy to get distracted. So, it’s important to develop a strategy for staying focused and developing mindfulness skills through exercises such as meditation and yoga. The more we can manage our thoughts, emotions, reactions, judgements and impulses in a mindful manner the less chance there is of being overwhelmed by these powerful triggers that pull us away from present-moment awareness.In this Episode, we are going to subject our minds to fully understanding the essence of mindfulness. And how, despite the world's constant rapid change, we can immerse ourselves in daily meditation, journaling, and slowing down. Listen to the episode on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or on your favorite podcast platform. In this Episode, you’ll learn:· What true mindfulness is· What does it mean to be mindful?· The Importance of removing yourself from negative things and energy· How journaling prevents you from falling to negativity· How mindfulness may be practiced in a variety of ways· Tips on how to effectively meditate Connect with Alison Swerdloff:· LinkedIn· Gmail Connect with Dr. Liesa Harte:· LinkedIn· Email See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
