Definitions of Mindfulness

A mind full of just one thing.

A mind fully focused.

A mind full of the truth.

A mind full of the reality of now,

And of God’s presence within you, at this very moment.

Wow! That’s a lot.

Whatever is in your mind at the moment

Is of value,

Is precious and memorable,

And must be experienced and enjoyed,

Because it is yours,

And no one else’s.

The beautiful within you is precious,

It must be honored,

Appreciated and celebrated.

And owned by you as yours.

Mindfulness does that,

It’s a gift.

Let’s enjoy it

By doing it.

By being mindful.

Eat with Mindfulness

We can do a lot of things with mindfulness.

We can walk and we can talk mindfully.

We can listen to music totally focused.

We can do most anything that way.

So, let’s put our energy into eating mindfully.

It’s about being present to the process of eating,

Present to the food, and present to the feelings aroused

From the eating of the food.

It’s a special way of eating.

It should generally be very enjoyable,

Because we become totally involved in the experience of eating,

Something we don’t usually do.

As I eat I am mindful, I am focused.

I get in touch with myself.

I’m not judging if it’s good or bad,

The whole experience is beautiful.

As I eat,

I relish the taste of the food,

I am mindful of its appearance,

I delight in the aroma it emits.

I enjoy its touch with my fingers and tongue,

I am attuned to the sounds of my chewing,

And I am utterly enthralled by the experience.

It’s a journey in mindfulness.

The Energy of Mindfulness

There is energy in the universe.

All matter whether animate or inanimate

Has energy.

The energy consists of atoms whirling within them.

They are in constant motion.

The mind too has atoms in motion,

But they’re not the problem.

It’s the thoughts whirling about

That are the problem,

But we can control that energy.

There is an additional energy available

To control our thinking.

It’s the energy of mindfulness.

We can learn to focus our mind

Within the present moment by being mindful

We start with believing

That we can control our thinking,

And we ask for help from the wisdom within,

That could be God for you or not.

And then we begin to learn to focus.

Tomorrow

We continue our journey

Of Mindfulness.

I am Mindful

When I am mindful

I am filled with energy,

The energy of the universe.

In order to be focused,

Whether it be on the stars or the moon,

The clouds or a rainbow,

It takes energy.

It takes every bit of it to be fully mindful.

I am mindful.

The energy of mindfulness is within us.

It’s a gift of the universe.

What a beautiful gift we have at our disposal,

It’s there for our use at any time.

When we use our mind to its fullest extent,

That’s when we are truly mindful.

Mindfulness is the life force within each of us.

Wouldn’t it be amazing

To use our mind to its fullest extent?

That’s mindfulness.
