Whether you are at home or at work, on your daily commute or
traveling, you can practice mindfulness to decrease stress and improve
your health and well-being.
It is often challenging to weave mindfulness into our day as we get
caught up in the busy-ness of life. It can feel overwhelming sometimes
to know what to do and how to start doing something different and having
to decide stops us doing anything at all. Mindfulness on the Go is
designed to address this problem. It introduces the essential pillars of
mindfulness and how to cultivate it, then offers 52 suggestions, divided
into practices and activities, to start using it every day. Practices
are mini meditations to do while you are out and about, while activities
focus more on becoming aware of your habitual patterns of behavior, as
well as how mindfulness can help you to cultivate new ones. By focusing
on just one thing per day, it makes it easier to remember rather than
just feeling you should be mindful all the time. As you become familiar
with the type of practices, you will find that you begin to do them
without the prompts, and mindfulness will become part of your daily
life.
