"I do mindfulness its something I've done now for a good few years after suffering from Anxiety still got it now but I know how to control it through Mindfulness "
That's great to hear it helps you.
I meditate but I'm not sure whether to try mindfulness. I don't know whether there is a point. It seems similar |

"Meditation is something I've always been interested in trying... Should get it off my to do list K x"
There are lots of meditation groups around now. It would be a good way to let you try it out |

Mindfulness is becoming increasingly more popular as a therapeutic practice.
A few people I know have recommended the head space app as a starting point |

Yeah I do, originally I dismissed it as being a sort of religious - new agey type of thing, but the science and research on mindfulness and meditation is absolutely loaded, it is without doubt 100% the best thing you can do for your mind.
I started trying it when suffering from extreme anxiety and depression and it's helped me greatly. And I don't do it everyday, but apparently just 5 minutes a day can improve focus and concentration, memory, alleviate depression and anxiety.
Practicing mindfulness, paying attention to your breathing literally begins to re-wire your brain.
Sorry for the novel, totally geeking out over this but yeah I did a lot of research on this and point is, it works. The evidence is indisputable.
And if you're into tantric sex, holding off orgasms, it helps too. Everyone's a winner.

As a practicing Buddhist I have used Mindfullness meditation in my daily life for quite some time now.
I am currently studying a Post Grad in Cognitive Behaviour Therapy and find Mindfullness has helped me greatly through the course |

I'm trying to get into a meditation routine and introduce the principals into daily life, to help manage anxiety and stress, and to ditch the habit of dwelling on the past and worrying about the future. To just 'be'. (Her) |

Yes, mindfulness is part of my every day life now, and I meditate regularly.
I also do things like Bodybalance which encourage movement and becoming more aware of your own body and inner thoughts.
I definitely feel better for it. |
