WHY YSK- Many people practice mindfulness and meditation as part of their lives, and some would like to but feel like they don’t have time to sit down and meditate properly. Once you’ve gotten used to doing it as a part of your daily activities, it becomes easy to simply take a few breaths and gain some peace from your everyday existence. You don’t need to wait for a time when you can sit and clear your mind completely. It’s a nice bonus, but not necessary for living a mindful life.

    This is right. People tend to think of meditation as a static body posture. But can be done anywhere and anytime. It is not about relaxation, it’s about being conscious of something like our breath or just the shape of a grape and bringing your mind constantly to it when it tries to generate thoughts. That exercise of bring your mind constantly to the thing you want, makes a massive benefit in the psyche. It doesn’t benefit from the amount of time you can keep con con concentration, is about that mentioned exercise.
