1. There's no right or wrong way to practise mindfulness. It's a very kind, forgiving and generous practice we can do with ourselves.

2. Please remember that your mind will wander and thoughts keep popping up, perhaps many times as you practise, that's ok, that's what human minds do. Each time we notice it's wandered, we bring it back each time to focus our attention again- gently and kindly, over and over again each time. No need to be angry or frustrated with ourselves.

3. The more you practise, the more benefits and insights you are likely to notice later on- start gently at first and build your skills slowly over time.

4. Always be kind, forgiving and gentle with yourself as you practise mindfulness. In this way, your awareness of what you are noticing, and your focus are likely to grow and help you.

5. Mindfulness is about not wanting any particular feeling. This means we don't use mindfulness to seek relaxation, or to feel calm or good whenever we practise. Every feeling is welcomed in mindfulness, and we learn to notice these as they come and go. This is important to remember but can take some getting used to at first.
