Two types of mindfulness

Concentrating - stay focussed on a particular eg breath, mantra, walking etc. When you notice that the mind has wandered, bring it back.

Witnessing – while sitting quietly note what passes through mind – thoughts, feelings, moods. What comes also goes. Just watch. Let it be.

There is a detached space between stimulus and response. Cultivate it.
