Want to Live a Meaningful and Mindful Life? Choose Where You Place Your Attention. With Mitra Manesh.

Todays guest is Mitra Manesh. She is a senior mindfulness educator at UCLA’s Mindful Awareness Research Center, best known for her storytelling and innovative teachings.

Mitra is also the creator of the Mindful Attentionist Coaching (MAC) program — an inside-out deep dive into what she calls a life of choice and wellbeing. In this interview, she’s shares her wisdom on everything from how to be an attentionist to how to be in relationship with others.

A little definition to get started: She defines Attentionism as an awakened way of believing, feeling, and living. It's about taking charge of your attention and learning how to use it intentionally.

She says there are three steps that can help you become an Attentionist

Decide where you want to place your attention.

Notice when your attention has wandered away.

Bring it back and place it where you intended to be.
