Last month I did a series of six posts about Mindfulness. I described what Mindfulness was, how to practice it and how it helps me through my periods of depression. I thought it might be useful to collate all those posts together in one place so anyone interested can browse at their leisure. To that end, I have produced an ebook and uploaded it to [Steemfiles.com.](https://www.steemfiles.com/cgi-bin/index.cgi) The cost of the ebook is a tiny 0.100 SBD and can be purchased by clicking on the following link:- --- [An Introduction To Practical Mindfulness](http://www.steemfiles.com/cgi-bin/view.cgi?id=34) --- I hope you find it useful and if you have any comments (good or bad) then please post those below. For those who may wish to look at the original posts here are the links to those:- [Part 1 - An introduction to Mindfulness](https://steemit.com/life/@maninayton/maninayton-mindfulness-series-part-1-an-introduction) [Part 2 - What Mindfulness is and is not](https://steemit.com/life/@maninayton/maninayton-mindfulness-series-part-2-what-mindfulness-is-and-is-not) [Part 3 - An example of Mindfulness in daily life](https://steemit.com/life/@maninayton/maninayton-mindfulness-series-part-3-an-example-of-mindfulness-in-daily-life) [Part 4 - Why should you practise Mindfulness?](https://steemit.com/life/@maninayton/maninayton-mindfulness-series-part-4-why-should-you-practise-mindfulness) [Part 5 - The neuroscience behind Mindfulness](https://steemit.com/life/@maninayton/maninayton-mindfulness-series-part-5-the-neuroscience-science-behind-mindfulness) [Part 6 - Awareness of breath meditation](https://steemit.com/life/@maninayton/maninayton-mindfulness-series-part-6-awareness-of-breath-meditation) --- ![Divider](https://imgsnap.com/images/2017/04/25/Divider2.jpg) I hope you have enjoyed this post and would consider following me (I will reciprocate).

Good for you for sharing your feelings and thoughts.......we all struggle at times and we often feel that it is just us. In fact it is all of us who struggle, and It is the human thing to do. What matters is what you do about those feelings.

Hi @durhamprof and thank you for your comment. One of my reasons for joining Steemit was to help raise awareness of mental health issues and maybe help people out at the same time. You're right when you say that everyone struggles at some time in their lives and that's why it is important that we foster an open and frank discussion on mental health and help rid it of the stigma that it still holds for many people. Thanks again and I've followed you as well. :-D

Thank you......As someone who has studied mental health,and then applied it in the field, I believe that this is one of the most misunderstood areas of the human condition. Different is scary.....people fear what they don't understand.
