Mindfulness is a way of life and the principles of mindfulness can be applied to each and every living moment.

This website is dedicated to sharing knowledge, experiences and thoughts about living life The Mindful Way.

Here's a short poem that provides a perspective on a mindful way of life:

Living life, the mindful way
It is always now, as they say

From moment to moment, each moment at a time
Life is its own meaning, it’s not like a dime

The bias in our minds, creates the confusion
Dropping this bias, is a clear solution

Act for the action, not the results that you seek
It’s the seeking in life, that makes the mind weak

Compassion, kindness and love are their own results
To understand this message, we don’t need cults

When we say I am this, it means we’re not that
After all we realise, most beliefs fall flat

It’s a story that we hold very close to our heart
Until one day it’s researched and defied by a chart

Presence in the present requires no belief
Dropping all the notions leaves a sigh of relief

What is it that is different in us from the others
Striving for uniqueness is the thought that really bothers

We’re all so unique and yet we’re all the same
Different characters as it may seem, we’re all in the same game

It’s a skill to cherish life, in this moment as it is
It’s as simple as it sounds, you don’t need to be a whiz
