Mindfulness has become one of the new personal developments. Many celebrities talk about how the focus has changed their lives. And if it has changed the life of someone we admire, we tend to see things positive. These days you hear someone say they are on their way to class attention. It seems that, as with yoga, qi gong, or meditation, we need an hour set for the week to exercise the mental part of ourselves.
Very few of us have the time and trouble to exercise silence instead of the activity. Not too many people realize the benefits of taking the time to do something, to become more energetic, modern and efficient. If I do something for a while now, I'll do better later. Mindfulness helps us to do. So what mindfulness is all about? Especially, attention is not something new.
Buddhists have practiced vigilance over 2500 years. In Buddhism, there are eight different paths to follow. One of them is the consciousness of right, namely, attention. In many ways, consciousness is one of the greatest mysteries or puzzles of biology. There are eleven million signals per second, but we are aware of only forty. Our consciousness is like a spotlight.
You have control over it. Here is the entrance to focus attention, we can choose what we want to create in the world. Using the focus is how to light a dark room. Here's a simple example of using care:
Close your eyes.
Listen to the sounds around you.
Just listen.
Now you can become aware of the sounds around you. They were there all the time, but you do not know. As you know the time is converted to the idea and then it's over. Time can never be closed, it can only observe and lived here and now. It shows us the direction of attention "now".
