In this episode, we talk all about mindfulness – which is, put simply, a trained, continuous state of attention. We interview Michael Bunting, The Mindful Leader, who introduces mindfulness practice by illustrating how we can use our daily routines to become more ‘intimate’ with our lives by simply asking ourselves: “can I be fully present in this activity?”. In the interview, we discuss with Michael the many benefits of mindfulness and introduce listeners to the ‘Awaken Mind’ app – which can help users to discover the “why” of mindfulness practice.

Quotes by Michael Bunting

“That’s what mindfulness does: you just feel better… ‘for no good reason’ ”

“If I want more happiness, and more effectiveness, I should train my mind to be clearer, my heart to be engaged, and my body to be relaxed”

“When I wish for reality to be different, which is a function of the mind, my suffering exponentially increases”

“Do not get involved in an argument with today”

“It’s a sense of wonder, and freshness, because the mind is clean and clear, and life is just absolutely extraordinary”
