Another pithy definition of mindfulness I enjoy. This from the teacher James Baraz:
“Mindfulness is simply being aware of what is happening right now without wishing it were different; enjoying the pleasant without holding on when it changes (which it will); being with the unpleasant without fearing it will always be this way (which it won’t).”
And what image is better to convey that than a tufted-ear squirrel?
