Discussing mindfulness practice as one specific thing is almost impossible, isn't it? It is like discussing exercise. One person's exercise is walking their dog around the block while another person's exercise is climbing a mountain.


I was taught mindfulness and meditation in a very traditional setting. However, when I trained as a mindfulness practice instructor it was less traditional. I liked mindfulness practice instructor training because it brought in the whole world as a ground for practice.


What AzulOscuro wrote is the basic truth...we have to remember the goal of "full attention"...and whatever gets us to that place is authentic practice. It is interesting to hear how people incorporate mindfulness into their lives.
