Mindfulness - Why I am always lost? - Part 1

Mindfulness - What is it?

Someone wise has said “Mindfulness is the practice of purposely bringing one's attention to the present-moment experience without evaluation, a skill one develops through meditation or other training” source Wikipedia.

Why I am always lost?

It’s so hard to focus these days, with technology encroaching every aspect of life, calendar pop ups, e-mail notifications, news alerts, exercise reminders, ovulation estimates etc, the list goes on and on. With so much technology around us, it encroaches into our personal space whether being on the date or worst case in the bedroom. It’s very easy to get lost or super distracted.

How not to get lost?

Lot of things can be done to turn our focus onto things you care about. What I am doing lately is trying a meditation every morning from my favorite yogi, Boho Beautiful. She has several mediations of 5-15 minutes. They are perfect for busy life like mine. She does guided mediation and they are absolutely fabulous. Her calming voice, guided mantras to recite while focusing on the breathing aka pranayama with eyes closed has helped me a lot. It has brought more focus and awareness into my personal life and my professional life as well. With laser sharp focus at my disposal, I am seeing great results. My day starts with more calm. My boyfriend is more attentive as I not lost anymore, he feels loved, cared and I feel the same way toward him. I feel there is more awareness to what I am doing and thinking. I am creating positive energy and a better environment to those around me. I feel more at peace within myself.

I am hoping I can continue this way and achieve mindfulness in every task or moment that I care about.
