Practice Mindfulness

Mindfulness means paying full attention to the present moment — what you can see, hear, feel, and sense right now — without judging it or wishing it were different. Your mind often wanders to the past ("I should have done better") or the future ("What if something goes wrong?"). Mindfulness gently brings it back to now.
