Jon Kabat-Zen is a Ph.D who brought mindfulness mainstream and is the founder of Mindfulness Base Stress - Reduction (MBSR). Originally Kabat-Zen discovered the art of meditation though Buddhism, then focused on a way to use meditation in a non-religious and none-spiritual way. Kabat-Zinn came up with nine different attitude’s of mindfulness to use in every day life.
Accept - Accept thing’s how they are. Although they may not always be how we want to them to be.
Beginners mind - The concert that you approach the world as if you have never seen it. Every moment is new, every moment is fresh.
Non-judgemental - The idea of not judging thing’s based on other peoples opinion’s or your own thought’s,
Trust - Trust your body, Trust your mind, Trust yourself.
Patience - Practicing patience allows us to enjoy the present moment. To often we are in hurry that we are unconscious of the now.
Non - Striving -To have ability to the make time to do nothing. We constantly feel the need to keep going. However non-doing is also really important for our mind and body.
Gratitude - Learn appreciate to appreciate the small thing’s in life. Give thanks for what you already have.
Generosity - The art of giving out of the kindness your own hart, not expecting anything in return.
Letting Go - The opposite of clinging. The ability of letting go and not getting so attached to someone or something especially when they or that thing no longer serves you.
