Why is mindfulness so beneficial?
It is the nature of the mind to run constantly and seek topics to ponder about, replay, ruminate over, critique, etc. A 2020 Queen’s University study estimates that the average American has 6,200 thoughts per day, which breaks down to 6.5 thoughts per minute (and that’s if you sleep for 8 hours)... If we do not learn to work with our minds, we may spend most of our day lost in thought! The practice of mindfulness is rooted in 2,500-year traditions from Buddhism and Hinduism
