Mindfulness

What is Mindfulness?

Mindfulness is defined as the awareness that comes when we direct our full attention deliberately in the present moment and don’t engage judgement.

Mindfulness is a technique and it is associated with many health benefits such as creating a positive mindset and attributing to raised self esteem and self-acceptance.

Mindfulness can be used formally as a daily practice or informally as mindful living. Been mindful in this way takes us off ‘auto-pilot’ and focuses us back to the present moment.

How does Mindfulness work?

The tendency in our busy lives is to put all our attention on thoughts that are not associated with the present moment. In doing this we miss the magic of the present moments, sights, sounds seasons and totally lose the connection of where life is. At Cheeki Zen we develop three characteristics of mindfulness to enhance your secure non-reactive attention.

Intention to cultivate awareness
Attention to what is occurring in the present moment
Attitude that is non-judgemental

Using Mindfulness in your life

People utilise mindfulness in a myriad of ways. Some people use it to help with their performance and mental health. For others they use mindfulness as a vehicle for personal growth. It is common for a lot of people to explore more usually in areas of spiritual growth and developing a daily meditation practice.

The benefits of using mindfulness and enhancing mental health is well documented. Scientists have found that mindfulness is associated with changes in the brain as well as physiological altering stress responses.

"I was experiencing a time in my life where I was under a lot of anxiety and worry. I felt completely a lone and isolated. I was not able to get into college due to COVID and felt distraught leaving school without any formal qualifications. This affected my mental health, making me a much more distressed person in which I realised I was living in the future not in the moment. Anita’s incredible life coach/mind Calm sessions and teaching gave me the opportunity to take control of my mind and life as they allowed me to become a much happier, positive, and more authentic person. I could not recommend Anita enough! Thank you so much."
Anna Bradley
"Anita has a lovely happy personality and at the same time can show empathy and understanding while taking on board my problems. We have covered deep breathing techniques and have done stepping stones to achieve a calmer mind. This has been incredibly helpful to me. We have since moved onto Chakra meditation which I find totally relaxing and calming".
Janice Needham
"Anita’s energy, attitude and thoughts on life was a breath of fresh air. We now meet once a week to practice meditation and discuss new areas of spirituality. I had tried meditating before but could never get into it and become consistent. Anita has completely changed my attitude towards meditating and it is now a daily practice as part of my morning routine".
Talisa Vallance
"I wish to extend sincere thanks to Anita for the ongoing Stepping Stones to Mind Calm sessions. These sessions are really helping me with my racing mind. There is a lot of change going on in my professional life and personal life. I noticed I was living in the future and creating videos in my head which was making me anxious".
Ben Sanson
