Mindfulness
People take the moment for granted..
Normally in today's world, we are surrounded by a lot of distractions. To control the mind is a very important aspect. Meditation gives the calmness and silence. But for that, we need mindfulness. How to achieve that? Focus will be one of the key factors to achieve that.
Now the question is how to focus. It can be started with breathing.
In today's world, people are walking on the road with headphones in their ear. Sometimes, they lose touch with reality. Mindfulness brings you closer to the now and makes you more aware.
Your perception increases. Now there is a debate about whether "Staying at the moment" is the right concept or not. Being in the moment gives you the calmness of mind. But it's not easy. It takes time to develop it. Because most of the time our mind is wandering around. Sometimes, what we can do is just observe the thoughts. Not judging. Just observing. We can listen to the sound around us. We can observe the breath we take. That's the beginning.
Gradually as we move to higher consciousness level, we start to experience things with more sensual awareness.
Mindfulness can be achieved through any simple thing. It is the process of bringing your attention to the present moment. Be it meditation or anything that transcends. Focus is the most important thing.
