  "Mindfulness has the potential to enhance your existing skills, your sense of well-being and ability to apply yourself, thus improving your performance and ability to focus on the job in hand."

  Laurence Barrett Head of Group Resourcing, Prudential

  "Mindfulness is the awareness that emerges when paying attention on purpose, in the present, non- judgementally to things as they are. It is a mental state of increased focus and heightened awareness."
