What’s the difference between mindfulness and meditation?

Meditation is multi-faceted in that it can be done in a variety of ways. When people meditate, they use different techniques (such as mindfulness, or focusing on breathing, objects, thoughts, mantras or activities). Usually, meditation requires setting aside 10 – 20 minutes, sitting in silence, and working on training your attention and focus.

Mindfulness involves learning to be completely present in the moment, being fully aware of your feelings and thoughts without becoming distracted. Mindfulness helps you to stay in touch with your surroundings, nurtures a greater appreciation of life, and allows you to tackle your issues in a more productive, mentally sustainable way. It can be achieved anywhere, at any time and in any situation. It simply requires you to pay attention to what is going on.
