Awareness and mindfulness are two key concepts that promote a more balanced way of life. Being aware entails being able to recognise and respond to your thoughts, emotions, and bodily sensations as they arise. Being mindful entails paying attention to the present moment without judgement. It requires you to maintain a judgment-free awareness of your thoughts, feelings, and physiological sensations. We can look at our feelings and thoughts without getting sucked into them when we are mindful. This can help us make better decisions by making us more conscious of our actions and reactions. Being attentive and mindful can help us control our stress, reduce anxiety, and improve our overall well-being. Supporting mindfulness and awareness
