Publisher's summary

Follow A Practical Guide on Mindfulness and Begin to Deepen Your Awareness in Your Everyday Life

What would really make you happier? Finding the right person or improving your relationship? Getting that promotion or building a stronger career? Money in the bank or the mortgage paid off? The list can go on. Yet even when we get the things we think we want, there is still the sensation that something is missing. The things we believe we need don't always help us in the ways we expect.

Sometimes we can be so busy managing life that we are not experiencing it or not experiencing ourselves and the world around us. When we are not aware of the natural elements of life through our own senses, we slip into autopilot.

Mindfulness can help us to improve our physical and mental well-being by helping us to improve our awareness of ourselves and our surroundings. As a tradition, mindfulness has deep roots stretching back thousands of years into the timeless wisdom of the East. Scholars have detailed how mindfulness practices can be used as a way to wisdom while people from the worlds of sport, business, and government today adopt mindfulness as part of their strategies for success.

In this audiobook you will see how mindfulness can change the way we go through our days, do our work, build our relationships, and develop awareness of the world around us. Mindfulness itself is not a technique that involves any change. It is, in fact, the opposite; it is an approach used to deepen our own awareness. But that in itself promotes well-being and helps us to make changes in how we live.

Listen to this audiobook today, and learn how to live mindfully!

I will recommend to family and friends!

I am 55 years old and have lead a busy, scattered life. I am a giver and over the years I forgot to take care of me. I've heard of Mindfulness and was curious exactly what this topic is about. After listening to this audio book, I can't wait to start implementing these suggestions. I am sure I will listen to this again over the days to come. I will them search for other books by this author on the topic.

Additionally, I heard about this book from a Facebook friend (I knew her husband growing up). Her voice is so soothing, yet energetic and pleasing to hear. I am so happy that I took the time to listen to this. I will also be searching for other books she narrates. I listened to this during my morning walk.

My very first audio book!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Absolutely, how interesting to learn about this increasing my awareness of what's
new in this world. WOW

What does Ginger Roll bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

I love the inflection in her voice. Made me all relaxed and I love listening to this
lady.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Helped me improve my concentration

Any additional comments?

Love I will order more!!

Mindfulness 101

Great beginners book to listen to over and over until the roots of my behaviors begin to change naturally. With the hope that one day i won’t even notice a change, I will just “be” mindful.
