What is mindfulness?

“One specific aspect of mindfulness is awareness.”

— Jochen Reb, Jayanth Narayanan, & Zhi Wei Ho, 2015

“To cultivate the healing power of mindfulness requires much more than mechanically following a recipe or a set of instructions.”

— Jon Kabat Zinn, 2005

“Mindfulness is a deceptively simple way of relating to all experience that can reduce suffering and set the stage for positive personal transformation.”

— Ronald D. Siegel, Christopher K. Germer, & Andrew Olendzki, 2009

“We can talk about mindfulness or write at length about it, but to truly understand mindfulness, we have to experience it directly.”

— Ronald D. Siegel, Christopher K. Germer, & Andrew Olendzki, 2009
