Mindfulness in PRACTICE – first lets look at what Mindfulness is NOT

Mindfulness is NOT..

• Avoidance of or distraction away from unpleasant experiences

• Supression of inner emotional feelings or outward behaviour

• Blanking the mind

• An attempt to be in a ‘positive’ rather than ‘negative’ state

• Cognitive restructuring (although it can lead to changes in cognitive processes)

and mindfulness is NOT..
…‘Concentration’
