30-Minute Video Meditation to Approach Life With Beginner's Mind

We're never more present than we are when we experience something for the very first time, whether it's a new country, a movie premiere, or a gallery opening. We activate our childlike wonder—tuning into all of our senses—by fully soaking in how the experience feels, looks, and tastes. This way of seeing something in a fresh, new way is referred to as Beginner's Mind and is a key concept in mindfulness and meditation.

In today's meditation, we'll practice "noting." Noting is a simple meditation technique that can help us see how we think about things and, in this way, help us return to our Beginner's Mind. The more we practice these and other mindfulness techniques, the more we can bring a fresh, non-judgmental perspective to all aspects of our lives.
