Mindfulness with an object can seem hard to begin with. After what might be the honeymoon period of just learning to relax, having to focus can seem like torture. It is essential however to go through that. With mindfulness practise we are constantly trying to cut the bonds which bind us. We are looking for true freedom, true happiness and trying to let go or accept all experiences that arise in the mind. We are trying to respond to our environment more than just react to it. The focus needed with the use of the object can be transferred to other events which arise and can help us to respond more appropriately. This in turn should allow us to be happier and spread more happiness. I will talk more about this on another entry, for now though, please try to keep up with your practise.
