As children, we may cling to our favorite toys or books, but as adults, we tend to hold onto experiences, thoughts, and feelings. This attachment can lead to mental and emotional blockages in our practice of mindfulness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">For example, in meditation, certain thoughts, feelings, and memories may arise that can be pleasant or unpleasant. When we become attached to these experiences, we tend to enter into their analysis, which can distract us from focusing on the present moment. This can be a hindrance in our mindfulness practice because it takes us away from simply observing what is happening in the present moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" data-block-type=\"core\">Letting Go in Practice &#8211; A Key to Mindfulness<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">To overcome these blockages, it&#8217;s important to let go and simply observe our experiences, thoughts, and feelings as they come and go. This allows us to focus on the present moment and develop a deeper relationship with the nature of things in our lives. By letting go of the past and not clinging to experiences or thoughts, we free ourselves from the stories we have constructed for ourselves, which can be limiting and no longer serve us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">In a mindful workplace, this attitude of letting go can lead to greater peace, productivity, and collaboration. When we are not attached to past experiences or thoughts, we are better able to focus on the present moment and work together with our colleagues to achieve our goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p data-block-type=\"core\">In conclusion, letting go is a crucial aspect of mindfulness and can greatly benefit our personal and professional lives. By adopting this essential attitude, we can cultivate a more mindful and productive workplace, where we can focus on the present moment and achieve our goals.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Power of Letting Go in the Mindful Workplace: Seven Essential Attitudes Mindfulness is a state of awareness of the present moment, which can lead to greater peace and productivity &hellip;<\/p>\n<p class=\"read-more\"> <a class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/bujooeducation.com\/mindful-leader-attitudes\/letting-go\/\"> <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Letting go<\/span> Read More \u00bb<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":17561,"parent":17190,"menu_order":7,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"left-sidebar","site-content-layout":"plain-container","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"disabled","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"disabled","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"default","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"default","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","footnotes":""},"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"featured_image_urls":{"full":["https:\/\/bujooeducation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/dance-1.png",128,128,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/bujooeducation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/dance-1.png",128,128,false],"medium":["https:\/\/bujooeducation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/dance-1.png",128,128,false],"medium_large":["https:\/\/bujooeducation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/dance-1.png",128,128,false],"large":["https:\/\/bujooeducation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/dance-1.png",128,128,false],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/bujooeducation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/dance-1.png",128,128,false],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/bujooeducation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/dance-1.png",128,128,false],"web-stories-poster-portrait":["https:\/\/bujooeducation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/dance-1.png",128,128,false],"web-stories-publisher-logo":["https:\/\/bujooeducation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/dance-1.png",96,96,false],"web-stories-thumbnail":["https:\/\/bujooeducation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/dance-1.png",128,128,false]},"post_excerpt_stackable":"<p>The Power of Letting Go in the Mindful Workplace: Seven Essential Attitudes Mindfulness is a state of awareness of the present moment, which can lead to greater peace and productivity in both our personal and professional lives.
