Some Useful Definitions
 ​
Applications of Awareness, Mindfulness and Meditation.

“Some working definitions may be helpful.”

Awareness. This is the ability to perceive, to feel, or to be conscious of events, objects, thoughts, emotions, or sensory patterns. In this level of consciousness, sense data can be confirmed by an observer without necessarily implying understanding. More broadly, it is the state or quality of being aware of something  (Unknown, 2015).

Meditation. A set of techniques for quieting the mind by focusing your attention on a simple defined subject. Despite what you may have heard, meditation is not something you do to empty your mind but to quiet your mind (Sciandra, 2015, p. 33).

Meditation is a blanket term for a variety of techniques. The thing they have in common is that they produce a state in which your body is consciously relaxed and the mind is allowed to become calm and focused.  (Sciandra, 2105, p. 29)
​
Mindfulness This is the skill of being able to be completely present with your actions, your environment or your companions. Mindfulness is a skill necessary when meditating, but is useful at all other times as well. (Sciandra, 2015, p. 34)

Sciandra (2015) The Mindfulness Habit: Six Weeks to Creating the Habit of Being Present. ​


If you are depressed, you are living in the past.

If you are anxious, you are living in the future.
​

 If you are content, you are living in the present.
