Mindfulness meditation is a focused, nonjudgmental awareness of what is happening in the present moment. With mindfulness, we look at the whole range of experiences, the pleasant, the unpleasant, and the neutral. We are attempting to create and sustain a nonreactive, investigative attention. Mindfulness, also known as Insight meditation, is the simple and direct practice of moment-to-moment, present-time awareness.
Mindfulness is the practice of becoming fully aware of “right now” without dwelling on the past or forecasting the future. It involves a heightened awareness of direct sensory experience (e.g., really noticing your breathing, feeling the sensations of your body, noticing sounds arise and pass).
Qigong is a:
Moving Meditation and Mind-Body wellness practice
which is a combination of Movement, Posture, Breathing, and Awareness
