The Importance of Mindfulness to Awareness
Mindfulness is the key to awareness
Being mindful is not something you can do once and then neglect. It requires constant check-ins and considerations to be taken.
Mindfulness is the conscious awareness of your thoughts, feelings, actions, and intention – here and now, in the present. You gain recognition of your inner mindset/headspace/psyche self, which lets you better connect your conscious mind, subconscious mind, and ego.
Being mindful, in a nutshell, is ultimately being aware of you.
Awareness of the now changes
The moment is constantly changing.
These questions are some keys to recognizing awareness and awakening mindfulness:
· What am I thinking?
· How am I feeling?
· What am I feeling?
· How do I expect today to be?
· What can I do to take control today?
Then, throughout my day, I re-ask some or all these questions. That allows me to keep aware of myself as change happens throughout the day.
Nobody is perfect
When I am having a good day - and am totally conscious of my thoughts, feelings, actions, and intentions - I can get a lot of work done and do some awesome things.
However, when I am having a bad day – and I am overwhelmed by either happenings directly impacting me and/or world news and information – this is challenging. If I absorb too much of that negativity into my subconscious taking back conscious control becomes that much more challenging.
Nobody is perfect – or – everybody is perfectly imperfect. As such, nobody is always conscious of their thoughts and feelings. Mindlessness happens – and there are times to just embrace it and let go.
