MINDFULNESS movie review



Mindfulness is a mental state achieved by focusing one's awareness on the present moment, while calmly acknowledging and accepting one's feelings, thoughts, and bodily sensations, used as a therapeutic technique. Or in more simple terms, it’s the quality or state of being conscious and aware of something. I must admit to be completely fascinated by the impact on people living today when they are exposed to such a different way to consider what surrounds us. Once again, this movie is going to be filed in the same folder that contains all the “Quantum bleep” movies and it’ll be played and re-played dozens of times in my great desktop, I intend to make it interesting for my treasures to watch (and understand) with me, because – even if my brain is injured (they say…..) – the beginning of this 2nd millennium are dramatically changing people’s approach to reality.

The very reason why I love to become increasingly knowledgeable of the powers and capacities of our (human) brain is because it fully demonstrates the existence of a creator, who or what could possibly have we evolved from?

With “mindful awareness” the flow of energy and information that’s our mind enters our conscious attention and we can both appreciate its contents and come to regulate its flow in a new way.  Mindful awareness actually involves more than just simply being aware; It involves being aware of aspects of the mind itself.  Instead of being on automatic and mindless, mindfulness helps to awaken, and by reflecting on the mind we are enabled to make choices and thus change becomes possible. I truly cannot explain how fascinated I’ve become of these new ways to approach and understand our reality and – as a dad – I’ve made it my purpose to guide my treasures to this new approach to life.
