I am dealing with a very difficult medical situation for a loved one and often find myself thinking too much especially about the bad things that can happen in the future. How can mindfulness help me to focus more on the present moment and not look too far ahead?

Paying attention to what is, without liking or disliking is the core of mindfulness
Opening to this difficult moment and being with the pain that comes with it instead of rejecting it or thinking ahead, may be the beginning of a different way of surviving the hardship

How are you and your loved one doing, @dat?

Good morning @dat. I noticed your question about mindfulness this morning, Would you like to take the next step? If so, then you will be reaching for equanimity by using your mindfulness, Please look this up to get a more educated explanation. I just completed a three day retreat to learn about and practice equanimity,

Very simply it teaches you to “ride the waves” without over reacting or engaging in non productive behavior. It’s a new journey for us and we are actually enjoying helping each other attain this status.

What challenges are you facing today?

May you be calm and at peace.
