Mindfulness
by RubyJi
Question by okei on "Mindfulness":

I would say it's looking at oneself through objective eyes and others' eyes respectively. If "God is watching", then is the awareness of this both mindfulness and self-consciousness at the same time? Is self-consciousness then a good thing? All thoughts welcome!

Best Answer:

Answer by Shawn B (Eggnogstic)
Mindfulness is intense focus on the here and now, and does not require 'self'.
