#338 Mindfulness - Whole-heartedly Doing the Right Thing in Real Time

     Mindfulness practice "is about working on how we can do what we are already doing so that we do it more whole-heartedly, bringing our self fresh to each moment.
     This is not easy, because many of the moments of our lives are painful. We have only a little control over what life brings to us; often we can’t get what we want and we can’t avoid what we don’t want. This is the beginning of both psychotherapy and spiritual practice, since it leads us to the question of how we deal with what is in front of us."
