Mindfulness The Journey, Not the Destination is more than a self-help book. It is an amazing journey of self-discovery, understanding and knowledge that brings clarity and motivation into every aspect of our lives. By practising mindfulness every day and following the activities within this book, you can achieve a deeper understanding of who you actually are.
The author takes us on her own personal journey through life. Through self-analysis, reflection, self-help, poetry and literature she encourages us to become the drivers of our own lives, based on mindfulness, compassion and gratitude. By working towards keeping our minds healthy, we will not only help ourselves but every other precious life encountered along the way.
By nurturing yourself and focusing on self-care and self-respect, you can find a way of making life easier, simpler and more enjoyable. It is like going from rocky road to the freeway and having a satellite navigation system to guide your journey. No matter what suffering you are experiencing in life, you can find that inner strength to make the situation more bearable.
You can start right now, in this moment, to choose the route to a much healthier, meaningful and purposeful life. There is no destination! There is only this moment in time to live, breathe, laugh, cry and dance. It's an ongoing journey and this is the first lesson learnt through mindfulness. You also realise that the road is not going to be a smooth one and therefore require to build up extra reserves through self-care and nurturing, so that when obstacles appear along the road you will still find a way forward.
