Mindfulness Practice
Unity of Gaithersburg, 111 Central Ave, Gaithersburg, MD, USMindfulness Meditation group practice every Wednesday evening at Unity of Gaithersburg.
Mindfulness practice is not about achieving some special state of mind; it is more about noticing the experience you are having without trying to change it.
This interesting video suggests why you might sit and watch your mind wander off.

In this receptive mental state, you begin to see your own experience differently and, over time, see other people and the world differently.
Also, it is good for you: "the effect of regular meditation on the cortex was so profound that fifty-year-old meditators had a prefrontal cortex that looked like that of a twenty-five-year-old"
