Let’s start by defining each of the words. I will be using Merriam-Webster’s definition found online.

Empowered - “having the knowledge, confidence, means, or ability to do things or make decisions for oneself.”

Mindfulness - “the practice of maintaining a nonjudgmental state of heightened or complete awareness of one’s thoughts, emotions, or experiences on a moment-to-moment basis.”

To be empowered, you need to have attained the knowledge required to make decisions in your life. In addition, confidence is necessary. And, if you are empowered, to use your knowledge and confidence to make proactive choices in your life that allow this state of being to continue.  

Mindfulness encompasses the ability to be nonjudgmental while maintaining an awareness of what is going on at all times, both internally and externally.

The way I interpret this lets me know this is a state of being that is strived for by most of us, even if we aren't sure how and if we will attain it. To be aware of self and environment, without judgment of self and others, while maintaining the ability to make decisions and choices that best serve our healthy interests because our self-esteem enhances, rather than detracts, from this situation, requires that we have gained appropriate knowledge, earned confidence, and are able to use information in a manner that maintains a nonjudgmental attitude.

My desire in starting Empowered Mindfulness was to provide hundreds of opportunities for those visiting to acquire and maintain knowledge about self that will encourage the confidence to be self-aware and to make ongoing proactive decisions that will allow for a life that is the manifestation of empowered mindfulness.

Each of the topics offered is a small piece of a large puzzle that results in a comprehensive learning opportunity that helps to define how we live our day-to-day lives.
