Paying more attention to the present, or being mindful, can help you enjoy life more and better understand yourself. Mindfulness has a positive effect on mental wellbeing and can be developed in your own life. Take some time out to enjoy the moment and the environment around you. Mindfulness can be achieved through different activities such as walking, eating and colouring, so there is likely to be something that works you – it’s not just about meditating, if that’s not for you.
