What do we know about Mindfulness?
It has been established scientifically that Mindfulness - the practise of being mindful in life - significantly improves our health and wellbeing.
Mindfulness has been associated with improved physical health, heightened concentration, and mental clarity, increased empathy, self-awareness, and a richer quality of life.
Practising mindfulness in our lives helps us embrace every moment, allowing us to live in the present and enjoy the beautiful things that life has to offer. In other words, mindfulness allows us to live more grounded lives, bringing more clarity and creativity to our thoughts and actions.
Why do most people not live in the present? Why do most people suffer and struggle through life? Why do people feel so incomplete?
Most often, we are not living in the present. Our minds are constantly overridden with thoughts and emotions which consume all our energy. At multiple points throughout the day, our minds hijack us, sending us into the past or future. It is in these imaginary realms that we lose our sense of balance and become overwhelmed by emotions and thoughts.
Our wandering minds can instigate anxiety and stress, in severe cases resulting in physical ailments. Unfortunately, we don't always have control of our own minds, do we? It's easy to let our 'mind-noise' or 'mind-chatter' get in the way.
So why are we confined to our shadowed past or the metaphorical world of the future? Why can't we spend more time in this beautiful moment – in the present? How can we direct the mind back to the present moment?
How can we help?
With a simple technique - The Art of Conscious Balance - we can guide you to embrace and foster Conscious awareness into your life. The practise of Conscious awareness will enable you to regain control over your mind and freedom from unwanted mindnoise, ensuring peace, creativity, wellbeing, and clarity in your life.
Santosh Nambiar, founder of Mindnoise Matters will share the helpful techniques he used in his own life to transform his life from one of monotony and anxiety to one of joy and purpose. As noted in his new book – The Art of Conscious Balance - Breaking free from your conditioned self, Santosh explores how we can make our lives a form of meditation, in every moment, rather than our meditation being a mere 30 minute or one-hour affair! Learn how to bring about the inner peace wherever you are - at a busy workplace, a board meeting, waiting for the bus/train, even at home cooking dinner, going out for a walk in the park, whatever the moment, wherever you are, with these helpful techniques you can become a moving 'space of peace' wherever you go. Let not the outer chaos affect your inner peace.
