To be mindful means to pay attention to what is happening in the mind, body, and immediate environment. To remain present, while both curious and compassionate.  

Moreover, mindfulness is not complicated. 

It improves in response to a straightforward set of meditation practices that develop an increased awareness of thoughts, sensations, and feelings. Combined with increased kindness and passion, mindfulness improves our capacity to cope by identifying the options available to us. 

Mindfulness leads to greater wellbeing, mental clarity, and an increased ability to care for both yourself and others.  

The practice can be as simple as an awareness of breath and body. We observe our thoughts and emotions as they come and go before gently returning focus to physical sensations, while remaining curious, compassionate, and accepting.

You may have experienced a flow state at some point — that sense of fluidity between your body and mind, where you are totally absorbed by and deeply focused on something, beyond the point of distraction.

Time feels like it has slowed down. Your senses are heightened. You are at one with the task at hand, as action and awareness sync to create an effortless momentum. 

Some people describe this feeling as being “in the zone.” This is the flow state and it’s accessible to everyone, whether you’re engaged in a physical activity, a creative pursuit, or even a simple day-to-day task.

In this podcast episode I talk about 3 strategies you can use to achieve this state of flow and some other tips along with it !
