🌀 Consciousness is not just thinking, it is the ability to see that you are thinking.

When your attention is completely outside, you automatically live, but when you turn it inside out, you start noticing your breath, your thoughts, your emotions. That's where mindfulness begins.

Attention is a tool, consciousness is a state. Where your attention goes, there your energy flows.

Awareness means returning to yourself, to that point where you are neither in the past nor in the future, but fully here and now.
