Word for the Weekend!

Good afternoon everybody! It is a delightful weekend ripened with opportunity! I want to introduce the word for the weekend which I want you to focus deeply on. The word is mindful. Being mindful is looking past your thoughts and seeing everything for what it really is. Jon Kabat-Zinn claims,

“Mindfulness means paying attention in a particular way;

On purpose,

in the present moment, and nonjudgmentally.” 

So simply put, being mindful is focusing on everything without the garble of your mind's voice screaming in your ears to judge what you see. You see all objects and people just they way they are. I find being mindful truly amazing because the beauty in everything is clearly seen. I'm not clouding my mind with doubts, skepticism, or foreshadows. I see all things with simplicity and it truly proves that the world is a genuinely beautiful place. However, it can be rough to see things like that, so here are some easy steps to achieving mindfulness.

How to be mindful:

 1.       Take a deep breath and relax your mind.

2.       Let your thoughts flow out and start to focus on every bit of detail meshed into one thing

3. Lastly, feel what you see

Three easy steps to seeing the world in a new, more beautiful perspective.
