Mindfulness involves being present in the moment from "summary" of The Happiness Trap Pocketbook by Dr Russ Harris,Russ Harris,Bev Aisbett

When we practice mindfulness, we are fully engaged with whatever is happening in the present moment. This means we are not dwelling on the past or worrying about the future; instead, we are focused on the here and now. By being present in the moment, we can fully experience what is happening around us, both internally and externally. When we are mindful, we are able to observe our thoughts and emotions without getting caught up in them. This allows us to respond to situations in a more thoughtful and intentional way, rather than reacting impulsively based on our automatic thoughts and feelings. By being present in the moment, we can choose how we want to respond to the events unfolding around us. Mindfulness also helps us to cultivate a sense of gratitude and appreciation for the small moments of joy and beauty that often go unnoticed in our busy lives. When we are fully present, we can savor the simple pleasures of life, such as a warm cup of tea, a gentle breeze, or a kind word from a friend. These moments of mindfulness can bring a sense of peace and contentment to our lives. Practicing mindfulness can also help us to break free from the cycle of rumination and worry that often plagues our minds. By focusing on the present moment, we can let go of the regrets of the past and the anxieties of the future. This can help us to reduce stress and anxiety, and improve our overall sense of well-being.
  1. Mindfulness involves a commitment to being fully engaged with our lives, moment by moment. By practicing mindfulness, we can cultivate a greater sense of awareness, acceptance, and appreciation for the richness of each moment. When we are present in the moment, we can experience life more fully and deeply, with a sense of openness and curiosity.
