At its core, mindfulness means paying attention to what’s happening in the moment. It’s being aware of your physical body, feelings, thoughts, and surroundings. And that awareness — taking time to appreciate a vivid sunset, an elderly couple walking down the street hand in hand, or a smile from a stranger — will make you feel good. Even eating with intention, chewing slowly, and noticing the colors and flavors on your palate is a form of mindfulness.
If you want something deeper, try mindfulness meditation. Sit in a quiet place, clear your mind of other thoughts, and concentrate on your breathing. As you inhale and exhale, you’ll feel more calm and centered. I like to say, “you have to win the mornings.” In other words, start your morning with a regular meditation practice and with intention. This will set the rest of your day right. It will change your brain for the better.[2]
