Mindfulness, as I understand and practice it, without any spirtual mumbo jumbo

• Sit in a comfortable position

• Activate no-disturb mode on your phone and set a timer for the desired duration (10 - 60 minutes)

• Gently shut down the memories of the past and refrain from thinking about the future

• Bring your attention to this moment in time and feel each breath you inhale and exhale

• Feel the breeze on your skin

• Try chanting 'OM'. There is no spirtual mambo-jumbo here. It's simply the vibration from your throat soothing your brain, and it can feel like a magical experience

• Enjoy the bliss, calmness and peace of mind

Simple, isn't it?

So, what do you gain from this?
