"Mindfulness isn't difficult. We just need to remember to do it."

dear reader,
Welcome to Mindiac – a single edition publication designed for sustainability professionals. This issue’s content can help you improve relationships with clients and co-workers, enhance listening skills, and navigate complex environments. Aside from generally advancing your personal and professional life, the skills presented in this publication can subjectively improve your well-being with daily mindfulness practice.
We have all been bombarded by mindfulness magazines giving us different recipes for success. We aim to cut through the confusion and give you clear, sensible, and reliable information with an entertaining, intriguing, and informative delivery. We don't like magazines that tout baseless claims. If you are ever curious where we got our information, click on the yellow box to be directed to the study we used as evidence. Inside, you’ll find a
evidence. Inside, you’ll find a mixture of exercises, stories, and information profiles on mindfulness and sustainability. We debunk mindfulness myths and address why mindfulness is vital for sustainability professionals.
We are also here to tell you that it works! Throughout research and production, we have been going to the brain gym, and putting mindfulness exercises to the test. We were excited to find that consistent mindfulness practice was having significant impacts on our daily lives: stress reduction, broader perspectives, clarity, awareness, and enhanced gratitude and appreciation. At the end of a long day, we feel grounded and recharged by mindfulness practice. Our hope is that you take what’s in this publication to heart and actually apply what you learn. Trust us, you won’t regret it.
