One thing that I especially love about mindfulness is not only that it could give relief from chronic pain, anxiety and depression, but it could prevent them from happening. It could teach us how to take care of our mental health before we get ill. It could improve a lot of things in our everyday lives – our work performance, relationships with family and friends, levels of satisfaction and wellbeing, connections with our communities and nature. It could be applied to any part of our daily lives.

The beauty of Mindfulness consists in its universal effect – we are all different, we have different stories and backgrounds, different ethnicities, different cultures, religions, age, different life experiences and different education backgrounds. But our brains, nervous systems and hearts are constructed and functioned in the same way. That is why the ancient wisdom of mindfulness is so powerful today when it has been translated to our modern languages and better understood through scientific knowledge and approach.
