Meditation is a practise of achieving ultimate consciousness, where the goal is to still the mind in order to move beyond the chatter of our thoughts to a place of just being rather than thinking / doing. There are many ways to practice meditation, from simply focusing on the breath to guided visualisation, chanting to silence and more.
Mindfulness is about focussing on the present moment in whatever we are doing. For instance, drinking a hot cup of tea and focussing on its scent, warmth and taste or brushing our teeth and becoming aware of the sensations of each stroke – all with an objective to remove overpowering emotions from the mind.
