What it is (and is not)

Mindfulness is paying attention to the present moment with an open, non-judging attitude. It is not eliminating thoughts or reaching a special state: it is noticing the mind wandered and gently returning to the anchor (breath, sounds, sensations).

3-minute exercise

Sit comfortably. Close your eyes if you wish.
Feel three full breaths in the belly.
When a thought appears, name it (“thinking”) and return to the breath.
Open your eyes and notice one sound and one body sensation.

Expected benefits

With regular practice, many people report less emotional reactivity and better ability to pause before acting. Studies show modest but consistent benefits for stress and anxiety when combined with other interventions.
