Today we will talk about mindfulness. My guest speaker is Steve Price. I did a video interview with Steve early this year. You can find it on my web site. Steve was talking about the Center and the practice of Mindfulness.

Recently he decided to move on. Being a writer and a yoga teacher, Steve is pursuing his own goals, he is writing and teaching workshops in North Scottsdale. So for this episode I took a part of his interview – about mindfulness only.

My humble understanding of mindfulness is that it is a practice of being in the moment. It is paying attention to what you do.

You may ask, what’s a difference between mindfulness and meditation? Really, there’s none. I’ve done several episodes trying to explain that meditation itself has no religious background. Let me repeat it for those who did not pay attention: meditation has no religious background.

The word meditation originated from latin word “Meditari”, which means “Think”. Even though the word Meditation is used in the Bible numerous times, there are still people who see meditation as a part of eastern religions. Especially some Christians, who think that meditation is evil. Huh! I think they just need to educate themselves. And mindfulness is a good place to start. I think the word “Mindfulness” was created to simply avoid stereotyping.

Just like Zen, mindfulness is teaching being in the moment, observing the moment. Noticing where you are, as opposed to what most of people do: doing one thing, saying another and thinking about something else at the same time. You think about what you are currently doing. That is mindfulness 101.

Now let’s hear what Steve has to say. But before we do it, let me remind you that I hope to hear from you. Please send me your questions and comments. Share your story! This helps me to come up with topics useful for my listeners. Contact me at
