MindWalk - 3,2,1 Deliberate focus
In this mental workout, we practice "Deliberate Focus" using the senses - your visual, auditory and kinesthetic systems - a mindfulness-based exercise. You can practice the session outside on the PROMENAD and it is also possible to do it SITTING. The ability to focus our mind on what is happening in the moment we are in provides increased well-being.
Living in the moment requires a constant effort in our minds. Spontaneously, the brain is drawn to distractions, which easily leads us to emotional difficulties. Here we train to counteract that.

MindWalk - The Walk of the sences

We practice focus by being consciously present with our senses, thoughts and emotions and everything that happens around us, in the moment. We also train contact with, and sensitivity to, the body's signals, which is important for balancing cognitively demanding work in a time of distractions.
