La pratique de la Mindfulness est surtout orientée vers la liberation de la conscience, une comprehension au delà de la conceptuelle, et une profonde guérison des anciens schemas.

Mindful eating
Unless you are a hunter-gatherer or sustenance farmer, we have all become ever more disconnected from our food in recent years. Many of us don’t even consider where a meal comes from beyond the supermarket packaging. This is a loss, because eating offers an incredible opportunity to connect us more deeply to the natural world, the elements and to each other.
