			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The question most probably can be asked what happiness is. Neil Kaufman writes in his book, Happiness is a choice, that the following six principals are central to happiness:<br />Make happiness the priority<br />Personal Authenticity<br />Letting go of judgments<br />Being present<br />Being grateful<br />Deciding to be happy.</p>
<p>Looking at principal two to five, it leaves me with the thought that Mindfulness will be key to these principals.</p>
<p>Mindfulness can be described as the ability to stop for a moment or minutes and just to be, to be quite and to be aware of one’s thoughts but to direct it back to the moment or to one’s breathe.</p>
<p>“Mindfulness/Meditation can do that which nothing else can do, it introduces you to yourself.” Swami Rama.</p>
<p>What a way to stop: To learn one better, to be aware of our thoughts, to develop the discipline of presence and lastly to develop the skill to be able to evolve to a being to life live to its fullest.</p>
<p>Secondly to be grateful for the small things, I heard of somebody that got into the practice to say thank you everyday for something that they did not say thank you for before…. Make one think.</p>
