If you're new to the podcast, welcome, and if you listen regularly, thank you.This is an episode about how to use mindfulness and meditation to struggle less and enjoy life more.I’ve shared how the first M, music changes your brain chemistry and the power of the words we think and speak out loud, using our mouth, the second M. The third M, is actually two, well sort of, meditation & mindfulness. What’s the difference between those two? I like this description from an article I read recently stating one of the differences is meditation is a practice, and through this practice, one can develop different qualities, including mindfulness. As a practice you can also focus on an object, thought or activity to train your awareness. Mindfulness is a type of meditation and per Jon Kabat Zinn it is “the awareness that arises through paying attention, on purpose, in the present moment, non-judgmentally.”Let’s jump into the excerpt from Five Mindful Ways to Struggle Less and Enjoy Life More. You will hear more from Jon Kabat Zinn and research on mindfulness.
