The Importance of Mindfulness

Han advocates mindful living not just for personal happiness but also to bring peace to our troubled world. He uses the term Interbeing to describe how everything is interconnected and interdependent on everything else. When we look deeply enough into a tree, we'll be the tree and can put ourselves in its shoes. People who push hard for political, social, environmental or other changes often burn out after repeated setbacks. Han believes that awareness through mindfulness practice isn't enough. You must also take insightful action such as mindfully helping others,. taking each breath and step mindfully to transmit joy and peace.
