Mindfulness: The Known Yet Misunderstood

Mindfulness
There are times when people are physically active in their lives, but their brain isn’t fully present in the endeavor but wandering elsewhere, deep in thought of a different dimension of life, a dimension that is more comforting and acceptable for the human brain. Most people aren’t aware of this trick that their mind plays on them to hide away from a difficult situation because confrontations can be hard, and coping up with the actualities of life can be shattering, so it seems safe to avoid being fully in the present and let life go by without really dealing with internal and external conflicts that may disrupt our lives.
Being mindful is simply being aware of the environment and people that one is surrounded by, and ones actions; it’s a state of enlightenment. However, it is not as simple as it sounds because being heedful requires a person to adapt an observational state of mind and pay attention to everything that happens, and everything that he does, not to pass judgment or to analyze the situation but simply to able to accept the realities of life. Living in denial may seem comforting for a short period of time, but leaving this state can be hard if we don’t make a conscious effort to face the truth.
