Mindfulness is not just woo

I’ve recommended mindfulness as a way to short circuit boredom or automatic eating.

I’ve also used mindfulness as a way to give myself short term relief from stress and obsessive thinking.

I came across a great article today that fits in nicely with my experience. It’s an exercise like any other that with regular practice reaps benefits. Nothing instant or magical about it at all.

And even if intrusive feelings or thoughts seem to get in the way, it’s still mindfulness. If that makes any sense at all.
