Hooray for mindfulness

Hooray for mindfulness

Lots of good things are said about mindfulness and meditation.

I struggle with meditation but find mindfulness helpful. I'm trying to increase my hours of mindful activity to overcome depression. Short guided meditations are good too but I haven't done many. Tara Brach and Plum Village are a couple of providers I've liked.

Here's a good article busting some myths about mindfulness and listing benefits https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/article/2024/may/17/can-mindfulness-really-make-you-happy-lower-your-blood-pressure-and-improve-your-sleep-experts-reveal-all
