8. How does Mindfulness work?

Mindfulness starts when you start your daily practice. At the beginning just becoming aware of you thoughts is wonderful. Once you have become aware of your thoughts and the associated feelings you can start to deal with these by returning your attention to your breathing. As you practice more and more your Mindfulness will become stronger and start to filter into your daily life. In summary, awareness is the start of Mindfulness.
Once you become aware of thoughts and feeling you can learn to deal with them. Mindfulness will allow you to deal with both positive and negative emotions. By becoming aware of positive and negative emotions and then returning your attention to breathing will enable you to change the gray matter or neuroplasticity of the brain. When these emotions occur outside of the meditation period you will have built new ways to deal with these emotions and feelings. You will start to make more and more Mindful decisions.

9. How can I keep this feeling going after the end of the course?

You need to continue practicing for the great feeling of Mindfulness to continue.

10. How, when and where?

In the Course we suggest when to do the Mindfulness Meditation, where and how to get comfortable. We also explain that if you forget to do your practice its ok. We explain that you can return to mindfulness anytime you feel the need. However, by regularly practicing you will build up a great tool to deal with stress and other life ups and downs.

11. How much practice do I need to do to become Mindful?

The more practice you do the more Mindful you will become. Overtime you will be able to use the experiences that happened during the regular mindfulness meditation and apply them to your daily life. You will be less reactionary and more mindful when life events happen. You will be given more clarity and more time to consider more mindful decisions.

12. Is Mindfulness religious?

No its not, its a way to help individuals have more positive experiences.

13. What happens if I keep getting distracted?

If you are getting distracted then you are becoming aware. By learning to accept these distractions and return to focusing attention on breathing will help you build ways to deal with these distractions in daily life. Distractions means awareness. More practice will mean you will get more Mindful.
