Hi! I’m Gavril, and in this post I’m going to talk about why I started this mindfulness blog.
In early 2014 my back problems lead me to yoga, but it ended up helping me in a much better way. A deep calming effect experienced during Shavasana sparked my interest in meditation. It wasn’t long before I started practicing it daily, and it pretty much snowballed from there.
By applying mindfulness in everyday life and observing my thoughts, I was able to see the root of my unhappiness and dissatisfaction with life. Specifically, that all of it was created by negative thought loops playing in my head. Since then, I’ve been exploring what it means to live a mindful and more meaningful life, and I hope you will join me.
Why Start a Mindfulness Blog?
I believe that no matter how complicated or stressful our life is, it’s always possible to find peace and clarity, right here and now. Awareness developed by daily meditation practice can give us the strength to overcome even the hardest challenges in life.
This blog also gives me a chance to reach a lot of people around the world. It’s a perfect opportunity to share my experience and knowledge to help them get started on their own path.
Who Am I Writing for?
Many people could benefit from the information I post here, but I mainly write for those who are very new to mindfulness. They are interested but don’t know where to start. Or they’ve tried meditation but have trouble with concentration and consistency. They feel like they need more guidance and someone who would point them in the right direction.
I can help them take their first step towards mindfulness: from understanding how it can change their life to learning the best techniques and practices.

Our lives are so fast and stressful it’s really important to pull yourself into a mindfulness, destressed point at least a few times a day. I call in my mental health reset. Great post and thanks for sharing.

Everything that happened in the past dictates the present.
Everything that happens in the present dictates the future.
Therefore, we can dictate a better future by being more present in the present.
That’s an interesting way to look at it, Oudam. Thank you for sharing!
