10 Steps for Mindfulness

Mindfulness is the art of living in the present. Many of us go through life on autopilot. Being mindful helps you slow down and quit rushing through your days. By staying present and being mindful, you can make the little moments more enjoyable and memorable, and you will start appreciating life more.
