Week 5 Practicing Mindfulness
Mindfulness is noticing what you are experiencing while you’re experiencing it. For example, please raise your hands and wiggle your fingers. If you can feel your fingers wiggling, that’s mindfulness. Next, let’s experience mindfulness through using each of your senses.
