In this episode, recorded live during a guided meditation class in Bromley, Robert explores what mindfulness really is—and why it's far more than a stress reduction technique.We look at how the mind automatically creates narratives about the past or future and how a single thought can derail our day—unless we spot it early. Mindfulness meditation is the training ground for that awareness.What You'll LearnMindfulness is noticing the present moment without getting lost in mental narratives about the past or the future.The practice trains your subconscious to alert you when your attention has wandered, giving you a choice about where to focus.Stress reduction and relaxation are side effects of becoming aware of your internal state.You learn that you are the observer of thoughts—recognising this neutralises the intensity of inner narratives and mental movies.Connection isn't something to seek. It's what emerges when we break the cycle of distraction and mental chatter.The session then moves into a guided journey through focused-attention, calmness, and open-awareness meditations—simple yet powerful practices you can return to anytime.📣 About The Meditation CourseThe Meditation Course is delivered as four live, online group-guided meditation classes each week via meditationcourse.liveThe course teaches practical, science-based practices to retrain your mind for resilience, focus, calmness, and connection.🔗 Resources & LinksJoin a live class → meditationcourse.liveFollow on social channels for daily micro-learning postsExplore upcoming retreats and courses📌 If You Liked This EpisodeShare it with someone who feels "too busy to meditate"Try practising the guided section daily for a weekListen to our Mindful Walking - Guided Mindful Walk episode (most popular so far)
