In the article, Diana Winston, an instructor at MARC, describes mindful awareness as “the art of paying attention to the present moment with openness and curiosity. It’s really about teaching ourselves to live in the present moment and not to be lost in the past or the future.” If you’re not in California, you can check out a podcast for the class and learn some mindfulness meditation practices. There’s also a treasure trove of meditation instruction from MARC on iTunes: “Mindful Meditation at the Hammer.”
