Publisher's summary

Despite having been a part of religious rituals of all shapes and sizes for thousands of years via mindfulness meditation, the concept of mindfulness has only gained traction in the Western world in the last 50 years. This boom in popularity is thanks to mindfulness’ well-documented ability to improve mental health through the treatment of anxiety, stress, drug addiction, and more.

Surprisingly, practicing mindfulness is so easy that you can do it at literally any point during your day, whether at home, at the office, or even in the car. Although most individuals experience mindfulness through their exposure to mindfulness meditation, it is possible to convert any activity into a mindfulness exercise. In fact, you can convert your daily commute and even your day job into opportunities for mindfulness with the right strategies!

Mindfulness isn’t just a change in mood either: Studies have shown that those who practice mindfulness on a regular basis have brains that are healthier and more efficient than those who do not. No wonder our ancestors were geniuses despite their lack of technology and how disconnected they were from one another: Ancient cultures have known about mindfulness for thousands of years. Luckily for you, you too can experience mindfulness for yourself today.

A very beautiful book

If there was any rating more than 5 stars, I would have given this book. I love the lessons it has. It made me realize how passive I have become in this world. Rather than allowing life go through us just as we go through it, we only go through it with a hurry and forget to slow down to enjoy the moment. If one can live in the moment and is able to be mindful of all things, as well as be grateful, the issue of stress and sadness will not come in.

Gives you the details!

The book gave me good thinking tips and things I need to improve on.
With such a busy year last year things got lost and thinking too much and staying on one subject happened, this book made me realise that you need to stop everything you are doing and just just thinking about everything around you.

Be present minded

This book highlights the simple steps on how to be present in any moment we are up to which benefits not just us but others as well. This book is much recommended to people who gets easily distracted.
