Mindfulness:
In addition to medical treatment, mindfulness was developed as a stress management technique by medical scientist Dr. Jon Kabat-Zinn, which later achieved universal acceptance as an effective approach. Mindfulness means intentionally focusing on the present moment for a specific purpose without any kind of judgment.
Mindfulness is a practice through which you can control your mind, instead of your mind controlling you. Most people are actually forgetful, which is the opposite of mindfulness. Due to this forgetful nature, they cannot be in the right place at the right time. They remain stuck in either the past or the future. Their minds get trapped in multiple thoughts, fears, regrets over mistakes, and emotions. They cannot keep their minds in the present.If you are able to be mindful, you will not be forgetful. A mindful person can keep their mind in the present and under control.
