The details of this discussion focus on the practice of mindfulness through conscious breathing and walking meditation, allowing us to fully live each present moment and generate nourishing and healing energy. Each breath and each step should be pleasant and conscious, allowing us to touch the miracle of being alive. Mindfulness leads to deep insight that liberates from suffering. By being fully present in each daily gesture, such as eating or brushing our teeth, we can find healing. The Buddha teaches to recognize and transform suffering by identifying its sources of nourishment. Conscious consumption, avoiding toxic influences, is essential to preserve compassion and happiness. Cultivating positive intentions and evolving in nourishing environments allows us to generate positive energies. The practice of mindfulness, in community, brings healing and joy, reuniting the mind and body for a total and true presence.
