The Four Dimensions of Mindfulness
Mindfulness of Body
Focus inwards to notice how the body feels and communicates with sensations and emotions. Physical awareness helps develop mind-body connection and self-regulation skills.
Mindfulness of Mind
Observe mental states to develop a clear sense of self and avoid unhelpful thoughts. Mental awareness fosters resilience, improves decision-making, and enhances cognitive abilities.
Mindfulness of Activities
Tune into to what you're doing, your tasks, tools, and surroundings. Functional awareness improves performance, enhances restorative benefits, and instills self confidence.
Mindfulness of Others
Be present with others, listen with intention, and respond with empathy. Social awareness builds connections, reduces misunderstandings, and fosters genuine interactions.
