From Mindfulness to Heartfulness

"Heartfulness seeks to overcome limitations to the kind of mindfulness that is used for the pursuit of profit and pleasure and doesn't challenge materialistic beliefs, values, or practices. Mindfulness can enable other virtues, but if we remain on the purely cognitive level, or stay narrowly focused on stress reduction, we are missing its true power. While the science focus is extremely convincing as to the reality of the power of mindful practice, we also need to maintain and expand the hearts role in mindfulness." Stephen Murphy-Shigematsu shares more in this excerpt from his book "From Mindfulness to Heartfulness"
