Mindfulness. What exactly is mindfulness and how often do you really practice it? I’m going to be honest with you. I’ve been hearing this term a lot these days, but it never really resonated until a recent podcast interview with Lane Kennedy. She simply said, it’s just about being present, there is nothing else on my mind right now except for you and me.
I immediately thought about how important that was for us as parents for our kids. How often do we give our children our full undivided attention without the distraction of our cellphones, our worries, our bills, our meal prep, our weight, our work. How often can we fully tune out all of our other thoughts and give our children all that they deserve. Our minds.
With all of the isolation and social distancing due to Covid, it was nice that through that Zoom call, Lane and I took a moment to turn everything off, look at each other eye to eye, and wholeheartedly engaged in a conversation. Then she said, “Once you practice mindfulness it will create a ripple effect and that in itself could really change the world.”

正念。究竟什麼是正念? 一般來說要多久練習「正念」一次？我需要老實和大家說，這幾天我經常聽到這個詞彙，但直到最近榮幸採訪到 Lane Kennedy 才真正引起共鳴。她在節目裡簡單地敘述了這個概念，就是一直活在當下，我現在腦子裡想的事情除了我們之間的對話沒有其他的雜念。
我立即想到這個概念對於我們作為父母之於孩子的重要性。我們是否能常常不分心給予孩子全心全意的關注，許多分心來自於我們的手機、我們的對於生活的擔憂、我們的賬單、要煮什麼菜、我們最近是否體重變重了，以及我們的工作。我們是否有辦法可以排除其他的雜念，並給予孩子們應得的關注。
由於新冠疫情造成了所有的孤立和社交距離，很高興透過 Zoom，Lane和我花了一點時間隔絕其他雜念，雙方都可以全心全意地進行這場訪談。然後她說：「一旦你開始練習正念，它就會產生漣漪效應，而這將有可能真正開始改變世界。”」
