Mindfulness
In clinical psychology and well-being, mindfulness is the cognitive skill of, or state reached by, intentionally and on purpose maintaining moment-by-moment awareness of bodily sensations, feelings, thoughts, and immediate surroundings with a non-judgmental or equanimous attitude, counteracting [the mind's] automatic rumination and cognitive elaborations on one's experiences. The term mindfulness derives from the Pali word sati, a significant element of Buddhist traditions, and it incorporates elements from Theravada, Chan, and Tibetan Buddhist meditation techniques.
