About Mindfulness

That could be true but mindfulness is practice in many ways without having religious practice involved. It is all to the individual of which method to use to practice this technique

@DechanDawa can explain it much better than me but the activity you describe I sort of think it could be a formal practise of meditation.
Mindfulness is also meditation.

There’s something I see as very important and that I think I didn’t mention about mindfulness, your post recalled it to me.
Mindfulness is a tool for self-learning. The goal is being aware not only of what’s happening outside, inside you but also those things that are not so apparent but are more hidden behind our behaviours, emotions, etc.
Practice in mindfulness whose meaning is “full attention” is supposed to facilitate you this knowledge. Not to judge yourself or others but to know the reality more as it is.
In the end to see, you have to look and want to look.

Can I ask you a favor? Could you explain a little bit more about your technique? Do you use the music as a mean to help you to stay focused?

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.

This sounds like a form of insight meditation.
