You are much more than you think. Anna challenges you to look at Who you really are, and provides you with the insight to do so. It takes time to develop the practice of being in the present moment, when you become aware of your immense Presence. Humans need to awaken from the daze created by the windmills of their minds, that repetitive thinking which has been circulating perhaps for years, planted or dredged up, to no end, other than pain. Jon Kabat-Zinn, the founder of modern day mindfulness selected certain qualities, which he considered important, not only to facilitate the learning process, but also to be quite naturally enhanced in the process of mindfulness practice. They are, amongst others: Non-judgment, Patience, Beginner's mind, Trust, Acceptance and more.
SPIRITUAL METAPHYSICS AND MINDFULNESS COACHING FOR WOMEN OR COUPLES
Do you find your mind wanders? Do you find it hard to stay focused on the task you are doing, maybe at work? Do you feel its difficult to enjoy the moment, for example because you are worrying about what has happened, what is happening or what could happen? Mindfulness Practice is the secret to avoid stress, depression and anxiety. The secret is constant practice, formally or informally: we either make time intentionally to practise meditation; or, we can simply direct our attention to what we are doing in any given moment, e.g., as you are making a cup of tea, or eating - whatever you are doing. If you consciously keep your attention focused on the activity, this present moment lifestyle will become natural sooner than you think. There, you will find Presence, and it's pure bliss!

Jon Kabat-Zinn, the founder of modern day mindfulness selected certain qualities he considered to be important, not only to facilitate the learning process, but also to be enhanced in the process of mindfulness practice. The MBSR courses he designed are popular in hospitals, universities and corporations. Mental issues can also be dealt with through the NHS by which means your GP will refer you to its MBCT put together by Mark Williams, to deal especially with depression or anxiety. In more recent years, Mindfulness Now has been developed by Nick Cooke. It embraces both the American Style MBSR and the English version MBCT. It brings a fresh insight into modern day secular mindfulness for health and prosperity, but still acknowledging its Buddhist origins. Live and Learn as you practise!
