Being mindfully present in stillness and actions is a skilled approach that benefits all aspects of life.

Modern life has become increasingly hectic, with many demands from all directions. Our minds are constantly busy. We are controlled by our thoughts, emotions and habitual patterns. This can lead to automatic reactions and unhelpful decisions, which cause unhappiness and stress, mental and physical health issues. By being ‘somewhere else’ in our head, we miss out on our children growing up; we miss out on the beauty of life.

Mindfulness training helps us to live in the present moment, to free ourselves from the grasp of negative thoughts, to meet our experiences with kindness, curiosity and skills. Daily practice helps to generate happiness, calm, appreciation, insights, healing, compassion and wellbeing.

I have greatly benefited from my daily meditation practice since 1994. I wanted to share the benefits of mindfulness with others so I completed a mindfulness teacher training with Bangor University - I am teaching MBSR in UK. This channel offers various meditations to help you establish a daily mindfulness practice in stillness and in action.

A lot of our tiredness is due to the overload of our mind. It takes a lot of energy to worry, to ruminate, to let the mind go wild in random thoughts. Awareness of breath is a skillful meditation that will give your mind a rest. Using the breath as an anchor regularly throughout the day will help to rejuvenate, bring clarity and calm.

Tiredness can be caused by an overactive mind, but using breath as an anchor through meditation can bring clarity and calm.
