Woman Within International: Empowering women. "Mindfulness changed my life" David has taken our online Mindfulness course and has been practicing Mindfulness for ten months. Below he talks about his experience of discovering Mindfulness and the impact it has had on his life: "Imagine carrying two heavy cases wherever you go. Of course, they’ll get in the way and make your arms and back ache. But because they belong to you, you can’t just leave them somewhere.
Now imagine if one day, someone says: “You can leave your cases right here, just drop them on the floor where you stand.” “But I can’t,” you say, “they’re my responsibility.’ I’ve been carrying a heavy burden of worry, anxiety and fear needlessly for years. This change wasn’t immediate – the process was long and without shortcuts. The benefits of practicing Mindfulness for me are many.
Communicating with other people at home and at work has also improved. Mindfulness has not been a magic cure for my worries and anxieties.

The speeding ticket from God A couple of years ago I was rushing to work and made the split-second decision to keep going through a light when I knew very well that it was going to turn red. Moments later I was pulled over by an irate cop and on the receiving end of the full extent of his wrath along with a major ticket.

The irony of this story was that I was on my way to give a seminar about how to manage stress and avoid burnout.
