Mindfullness Meditation

Mindfullness Meditation is very important in Reflexology.

It is most important during a reflexology session, the person giving reflexology must stay focused on what they are doing and how they are helping the other persons energy.

It is simply the act of being mindful (aware) of what you are doing at all times... being in the present.

It sounds simple, and really is, but to start with many people may notice how their mind wanders into thinking about things that have happened during that day, or things they need to do, or places they would rather be... the list goes on and on, the point is that many people are living their lives physically but are completely mentally checked out from that reality.

For example, a person is having a shower and washing their hair, they are maybe thinking about what they need to do that day. The person gets dressed thinking about work, eats breakfast thinking about what to have for dinner etc etc. all of a sudden it is lunch time and they have no idea where their day has gone.

Not living in the moment but living in the past or the future can create anxiety.

So Mindfullness Meditation simply involves thinking about what is being done while a person is doing it.

For extra help on focusing and meditation it is recommended to concentrate on the sound and feel of your own breathing, listening to the air going in and out of the nose and concentrate solely on that sound.

There is no need to slow down or go faster, just breathe normally.

Through doing this it is easier to appreciate what is happening right now.
