What is Mindfulness?
According to Jon Kabat-Zinn, mindfulness is paying attention in a particular way, on purpose, in a present moment and non-judgmentally.
Mindfulness also involves acceptance. This means paying attention to thoughts and feelings without judging or reacting to them.
When you're mindful, there is no "right" or "wrong" way to think or feel in a particular moment.
