How To Apply Mindfulness In Your Business
I
hope all of you are safe and sound. I want to start this article with a story of my own.
ENTREPRENEUR COSTA RICA
Around five years ago, I was living in the Sacred Valley, Cusco, Peru. Some of you might know that Cusco is a perfect place to find many alternative therapies, which help you reconnect with your center, or spiritually. I took a 16-week kundalini yoga course that opened me to another dimension, the one that showed me I could meditate. Kundalini yoga practice works by connecting your chakras energy to your spiritual self, in turn connecting to the divine. Through reconnecting with my center, this course helped me understand how the central nervous system controls so many actions that affect our physiological and psychological levels. The purpose of sharing my story is to show you that knowledge of mindfulness and meditation can help you to recognize and respond to situations in ways that are beneficial. You don’t have to practice meditation for a long time to realize the benefits. 128

Everyday practice There are many ways that you can meditate. Here I will focus on how you can use mindfulness every day. Let’s begin with a simple mindfulness definition — being fully aware of the present. You can recognize how your senses connect with what is around you and how this affects you. Let’s use this example: you are enjoying a delicious cake. Mindfulness helps you understand what you are experiencing and how you are reacting. Scenario one: you feel happy about eating the cake because you deserve it. Or scenario two: you are feeling a rush suddenly in your body that you cannot control, and that makes you anxious. This is a perfect illustration of how mindfulness can help you detect the feeling of anxiety and then to handle the situation, get rid of the anxiety and come back to a healthy state.
