Recently we received several emails from a professional organization offering to train us and our employees in the art of mindfulness! We have also noticed a couple new magazines called Mindful, The Mindful Mom. It has become a concept to market and to profit from. We have no argument with making money!
People are inventing processes of how to achieve a very simple and profound quality that we all have innate access to. From one point of view, it is a good thing to have more people focus on being mindful. From another point of view, we can easily picture a scenario of the mindful against the mindless conflict. We can see these headline:
"Our agents are trained in the art of mindfulness, are yours?"
"I market homes, mindfully!"
"We build homes mindfully!"
"My mom is mindful and yours is not!"
"Got Mindfulness?"
There really is no mystery to it. The more you practice, the better you become at it...In the words of Thich Nhat Hanh,
We have a lamp inside of us, the lamp of mindfulness which we can light anytime. The oil of that lamp is our breathing, our steps, and our peaceful smile. Our practice is to light up the lamp.
Wishing you all a wonderful week ahead,
I remain mindfully yours,
Alexandra
