Mindfulness can be practised throughout the day as 'micro' doses, paying attention to small things such as eating, washing or walking. We can also cultivate a purposeful meditation practice, sitting or moving with our attention on the body or breath, resting awareness in the present moment.
Cultivating a mindful meditation practice provides a vehicle for self-inquiry. Coupled with compassion practices we are able to practise awareness of the present moment in a formal way, on our cushion, and these skills start to filter out into our everyday life.
