Monasteries of the Theravada Buddhist tradition have established the practice of mindfulness for more than 2000 years. In the past couple of decades, mindfulness has become regarded as a branch of psychology in the West. Traditional mindfulness practices now have widespread application in the West, including use in clinics, hospitals, schools, prisons, the public and private sector. Spiritual retreats, yoga classes, stress reduction courses and workshops for conflict resolution apply mindfulness exercises to develop the power of presence to situations. What are the benefits of mindfulness for everyday life? Has mindfulness in the West become a single limb cut off from the whole body of the Buddha’s teachings?
